[Dawn] Five bad boyz were potted in separate operations in the Kuram Garhi Mamandkhel and Shabri Kala Bhart areas here on Tuesday, police said.

They said two bad boyz were potted in a joint intelligence-based operation conducted by the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD), police and Pakistain Army in the Kuram Garhi Mamandkhel area within the jurisdiction of the Bannu Cantt cop shoppe on Tuesday night.

According to intelligence reports, Lions of Islam were present in the area and planning a major attack. Acting on the information, personnel of CTD Bannu, district police and the army were dispatched to the location to arrest them.
