The PPRO stressed that “the security forces are on top of the situation to ensure things do not get out of hand.

“A joint security team will be combing the bushes in the area Sunday afternoon to search for bodies, if therev is any.asThey will also apprehend the suspects responsible for the killings.”
“We are on top of the situation and all the hoodlums responsible would be rounded up.”
“But for the timely intervention of joint security personnel coordinated by the Area Commander, the terrorists would have had a field day.”
“Repelling the hoodlums was a tedious task for our security agencies, but they were successful as the terrorists scampered away from the scene.”
