SP Tahir Dawar murder in Afghanistan: New developments reported

PESHAWAR – Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Police Superintendent of Police Tahir Dawar, who had mysteriously “gone missing” from Islamabad, has reportedly been murdered in Afghanistan.

As per media report his body is being handed over to the KP authorities at Torkham border.

However, the federal government and police authorities on Tuesday said they had no confirmation regarding reports of the killing of Superintendent Police (SP) Tahir Khan Dawar.

On October 26, Peshawar Rural Superintendent of Police (SP) Mohammad Tahir Dawar had arrived in the federal capital after getting a short leave from his bosses. His cell phone had been switched off at around 8 pm and there had been no clue about him since after.

SP Dawar had gone missing from Islamabad on October 27. But speculation over the fate of the missing officer mounted on Tuesday when pictures of a dead body found in Afghanistan’s Nangarhar province, purportedly that of Dawar started circulating on social media platforms.
