The Taliban kidnapped more than 300 cadets and teachers in North Waziristan, killed four people during a bombing at a bus stand in Kohat, and bombed a school in Mohmand. The military said 37 Taliban fighters were killed and 13 were captured in Buner, Swat, and South Waziristan. The Anti-Terrorism Court sent 84 Hizb-ul-Tahrir workers to prison for protesting. Security forces detained a “high value terrorist” from Buner for beheading “spies” and executing suicide attacks on Special Branch and Frontier Constabulary barracks in Islamabad.
