Srinagar: Pakistan on Wednesday hanged four more ”hard core” Taliban terrorists convicted of “heinous” terrorism-related offences by controversial military courts, taking the number to over 150 since the Peshawar attack in 2014, media reports said.
These terrorists were involved in killing of innocent civilians and attacking armed forces.
Pakistan army in a statement to media said these were executed early on Wednesday. “These terrorists were involved in committing heinous offences relating to terrorism, including killing of innocent civilians, attacking Armed Forces of Pakistan and Law Enforcement Agencies,” it said.
The terrorists were active members of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan and had confessed to their crimes to a magistrate and the trial court, it added.
