SAHIWAL: Two arrested terrorists including the mastermind of Dasu hydel power project attack were killed by their accomplices in Sahiwal District of Punjab.
According to Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) spokesman, terrorists Muhammad Hussain and Ayaz alias Jahanzeb were being transferred from Sahiwal Jail due to security concerns, where the firing incident took place on Sammundari road in Sahiwal.
The spokesman said that to free the arrested terrorists, their accomplices opened fire on the police, as a result of which both terrorists were killed by the firing of their own accomplices.
It should be noted that the court had awarded the death penalty to the terrorists involved in the Dasu attack. On July 14, 2021, 13 people, including 9 foreigners, were killed and 20 injured in the Daso attack.
In November 2022, an Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) handed down the death sentence on 13 counts to each of the two men arrested in the DHPP terrorist attack case.
