RAWALPINDI: A wanted terrorist killed in an intelligence-based operation (IBO) in Shakas area of Khyber tribal district turned out to be a much propagated ‘missing person’, said Inter-Services Public Relations in its Tuesday’s statement.
According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) statement said a joint operation was conducted in Shakas during which an “intense” exchange of fire took place between terrorists and security forces.
