The dead bodies of 22 Pakistani militants who were killed in Afghanistan have been returned to Pakistan.

According to Azadi Radio’s affiliate Mashal Radio, the dead bodies were buried in their ancestral grave yard in Lower Dir area of Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province on Friday.

A local official Alam Zib has told Mashal Radio that the killed insurgents belonged to al-Badar Mujahideen and Jamat-ud-Dawah armed groups.

Meanwhile, residents of Timergarah have posted pictures showing coffins wrapped in the flag of al-Badar Mujahideen group, with a note that they were killed in a drone strike in Afghanistan, the news agency reports.

An Afghan official has told Mashal Radio on condition of anonymity that the 22 were killed three days before in security operation of Afghan forces in Khost province.

The media citing reports further states that al-Badar Mujahideen has participated in clashes in Kashmir and under the umbrella of Hizb-i-Islami of Hekmatyar in Afghanistan.

This comes as Afghan government has been asking Pakistan to stop training terrorists and sending them to Afghanistan for its “undeclared war” but Pakistan turns them as allegations.
