BANNU: Section 144 will be in effect until February 19 as part of rigorous measures implemented by the district administration of Bannu to address security issues. The regulation forbids holding corner meetings without prior authorization, wearing tinted glasses, or displaying weapons in public.
This comes after a slew of terrorist incidents that occurred last month in the area that targeted security forces. One such instance took place at Tank’s Police Line, where attackers and security guards engaged in a ceaseless six-hour gunfight.
