ISLAMABAD: (APP) Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan said that initial reports into the Christian Colony attack had revealed that all four terrorists were of foreign origin who infiltrated into the area from the tribal areas.

The investigations were underway to probe the matter of their entry into tribal belt, he added.

In his address to the lawyers, the Interior Minister said the lawyer's community did fight wars for establishment of democracy since the inception of the country.

"We have to win this psychological war against terrorism and we need the support of entire nation which we are getting right now," he added.

Pakistan has won the war against terrorism as terrorists were on the run and their sanctuaries have been eliminated, however, their facilitators were still hiding on our soil whose elimination was a must for maintening lasting peace.

"We still have to do lot of work towards this end."

He praised the bravery of Mardan police in war against terror and added politicking over the terrorism issue amounted to playing with the future of the country.

He said "our political opponents always accused us but I never leveled any allegation against any provincial government."

"I did not see any sign of remorse and gloom on the faces of KP people who are valiantly facing the menace of terrorism", he said and added "we have to formulate a national policy about the return of Afghan refugees which would be discussed in the meeting to be attended by the four chief ministers."
