The campaign of violence has been started by the Taliban since the military launched a major offensive in mid-October in the militant stranglehold of South Waziristan on afghan border which is in Pakistan’s lawless tribal area.  And the Friday’s attack was second in two weeks near a mosque used by the Pakistan’s security force.

According to the areas’ police chief, Feroz Khan after the police were leaving the mosque following their Friday prayers, almost 10 people were killed in the attack in the lower dir region. Whereas, local hospital official said that the blast also wounded 28 people which were mostly police men.

Well, no group has taken any responsibility for the bombing as such but the Taliban has carried many similar attacks throughout the country. And this Lower Dir area which is next to Swat Valley; where Pakistani soldiers wrested from the Taliban in early of this year. But the attacks seemed to be continued in that area. These militants have also thespian attacks in Pakistani’s heartland; many of them were against the country’s security forces.

Also, on Dec 4 this team of militants equipped with guns, bombs and grenades attacked a mosque near army headquarters outside of Islamabad killing 36 people. And despite of the recent attack of violence, where 500 and more people were killed in past two months, the Pakistani military has vowed to continue its unpleasantness in South Waziristan and cark down on other militants who threaten the state.
