PESHAWAR: One of the alleged facilitators of the January 2023 bombing at the Malik Saad Shaheed Police Lines in Peshawar has been arrested, it was learnt on Monday.

Reports said the accused had been held and shifted to an unknown place for interrogation. Police officials, however, did not confirm the arrest. Over 86 people were martyred and over 200 wounded in a blast in the mosque of the Peshawar Police Lines in January last year.
