Convicted murderer hanged

TIMERGARA: A death row inmate was executed at the District Jail here early Thursday morning, official sources said.

They said Said Jehan, a resident of Buner, was charged with the murder of his parents-in-laws. The deceased had been serving time since 2011. The body was handed over to the relatives after execution.

The government lifted moratorium on the death penalty following militants’ attack on Army Public School in Peshawar on December 16, 2014.
