Baaghi TV has learnt that after the incident, the police officials have cordoned off the area and launched a search operation in which no arrest has been made so far.
However, it is worth-mentioning here that TTP spokesman Muhammad Khurasani has claimed full responsibility for the Rawalpindi as well as Bannu attack. In Bannu, a group of unknown people opened fire on a Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) official who was on a leave. Further reports of the incident have not been received as of now.
It is to be noted that this is the first attack by the TTP in Punjab since the end of the ceasefire.
