PESHAWAR:
Law Enforcement Agencies have imposed curfew in the Mohmmand Agency of the Federally Administrated Tribal Areas after two rockets were fired upon the LEA camps in the Mohmand Agency.
A curfew was imposed in Mohmand Agency by the political administration from Thursday evening till late Friday afternoon. The orders were issued via a press release on the political administration’s social media page and even announced through loudspeakers at a mosque.
The curfew is in effect throughout the agency except for Prang Ghar Tehsil, which borders Charsadda and Mardan districts of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa.
Due to the curfew, all government departments including schools, colleges and hospitals were closed on Friday. Census activity had also been suspended in areas under curfew.
It is believed that the curfew has been imposed to facilitate a search operation initiated after two missiles were fired at a police post in Sro Kali late on Thursday night.
