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.
