The caller who identified himself as a representative of the TTP demanded a ransom of Rs 15 million.Nisar said that after he ignored the man's messages, he turned towards his brother Mushtaq Ali. He sent a voice message to Ali, asking him to show it to his brother.Nisar has for the past 20 years been working as a government contractor in Pakistan, according to Dawn.Nisar in his FIR said he was sleeping in his home, while his wife and children had gone to their village when he woke up upon hearing an explosion from outside his house at 4 pm on December 28, reported The Dawn.About 1,000 people were killed and injured in attacks by the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan on the Pakistan government in 2022, according to statistics published by the TTP terrorist group, Khaama Press reported.TTP said in a video, that most of their attacks took place in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. They also launched attacks outside the province, Khaama Press reported.The surge in attacks came after the TTP ended its ceasefire with the government last year in November, ordering its militants to carry out attacks throughout the country.Insurgents in Balochistan have also stepped up their violent activities and formalised a nexus with the TTP, as per Dawn report.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
