Citizens in Swat also protested for two consecutive days against the rise in terrorism.
Swat residents had gathered at Kabal Chowk, Swat, in a protest rally organised by the Swat rights movement, Swat Olasi Pasoon (Swat People’s Movement).
Earlier this week, explosions in an office of the Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) in the Kabal area of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s (KP) Swat Valley claimed 17 lives.
The cause of the blast is yet to be ascertained.
Last year, the residents of Swat had organised a series of protest demonstrations against the rise in terrorism in the region. They demanded the authorities to curtail the rise of terrorism in the region.
Pakistan has witnessed a resurgence of terrorism with the outlawed Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) targeting security officials particularly.
TTP is supported by the Taliban-led Afghan government.
