PESHAWAR: A policeman has been rounded up for allegedly faciliting the suicide bomber who had blown himself up in the mosque of the Malik Saad Shaheed Police Lines in January last year, a source told The News on Friday.
As many as 86 people were martyred and more than 200 injured in the biggest attack on police in the country.
