Targeted killings of Shia teachers triggers roadblocks, shutter down strike in Pakistan's Kurram

Kurram: A complete road-block and shutter-down strike were observed in various areas of Pakistan's Kurram including Parachinar against the heinous killing of eight persons including seven Shia school teachers in the Teri Mengal area of Parachinar.


Protest marches were held on Friday against the massacre of Shia school teachers, which KPK authorities tried to prove a land dispute.

The horrific incident took place after unidentified gunmen killed a person at Shalozan on Thursday, following which, terrorists stormed a school at Teri Mengal and brutally murdered seven teachers in the firing, according to reports.

Following the killing of Shia teachers, Kurram Teachers Association representative Zahid Tooro announced the closure of all private and government schools.

As a result of the strike, board exams for 9th and 10th classes were postponed, and Parachinar and other areas remained deserted with no traffic on the roads and markets closed. Demonstrations were reportedly at several places.
