Lahore: Two terrorists of the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), who were involved in the murder of a Polish engineer and an attack on the army personnel in Pakistan’s tribal region, have been arrested.

According to a spokesperson of the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) of the Punjab Police, the TTP militants were arrested on June 1 in a joint operation by the spy agency ISI and the CTD in Rawalpindi, some 250kms from Lahore. They are identified as Kaleemullah and Farid Khan.

Engineer Piotr Stanczak had been abducted from Attock, near Rawalpindi, in 2008 and he was beheaded in 2009 by the arrested suspects, he said. (PTI)
