The slain constable was identified as Farmanullah.

He was serving as the Frontier Reserve Police constable.

An official told Dawn News a group of terrorists intercepted the policeman at gunpoint near the village and took him away.

“The police had launched a search for the missing cop, and found his bullet-riddled body from the mountains on Friday evening,” he told the newspaper.

“The body was shifted to Government City Hospital for autopsy," he said.

He said a police contingent later reached the rural area to find the terrorists.

No arrests have been made so far.
