Peshawar blast: Picture shows suicide bomber with facilitator

In a significant development in the Peshawar Police Lines attack case, the police has got hold of a photograph purportedly showing the suspected bomber along with his alleged facilitator on the Ring Road.

The two men are seen riding a motorcycle on the Ring Road in the screen grab. The suspect is said to be sitting on the pillion seat while the facilitator is said to be riding the bike.

According to police sources, the facilitator assisted the alleged suicide bomber in entering the GT Road and traveling to the Ring Road. The facilitator, according to them, then parted ways with the alleged bomber at Jamil Chowk.

An apex committee made up of top military and civilian leaders agreed on Friday that the Centre and the provinces would use the same strategy to fight terrorism and get rid of militants’ internal facilitators.

According to the provincial police chief, 86 people were killed in the suicide attack at the mosque in the Police Lines area.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif presided over the meeting of the apex committee, and Chief of Army Staff General Asim Munir was also present at the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Governor House.

The committee instructed the concerned authorities to enhance the National Action Plan (NAP)’s implementation in light of the new realities on the ground.
