Quetta (Kudrat News) — One outlawed Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) terrorist was killed during an exchange of fire between police and militants in the Pishin area, while a search operation is still underway in the region.

According to police, on Wednesday evening the SHO of City Police Station Pishin was returning after conducting a raid in Killi Karbala when unidentified terrorists riding motorcycles opened fire on a police mobile near Sangar Killi.

In retaliatory firing by police, one terrorist was injured, after which the attackers fled towards the hills of Killi Sangar.

Police recovered a Kalashnikov rifle with magazines, a Honda motorcycle, and a colored copy of an identity card from the possession of the killed terrorist. Further investigation and legal action are underway.
