  "account": "Information Minister Attaullah Tarar warned on Friday that there was a \"political, terror crime nexus\" in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) and called on the provincial government to maintain law and order. Tarar stated that illegal gold mining, timber and tobacco trade were being used to finance and facilitate terrorism. He criticized the K-P government for being oblivious to the situation and reluctant to take measures to maintain law and order. Tarar alleged that the provincial government was facilitating terrorists and that the party had avoided condemning terrorists or taking action against them. He highlighted that terrorist attacks had increased in 2026, resulting in 472 police, ranger and army personnel being martyred and over 1,500 individuals injured. Tarar stated that the provincial government was responsible for maintaining law and order and that the fight against terrorism was being led by the people, security forces and law-enforcement personnel.",
  "summary": "Says K-P government is 'facilitating' terrorists, has adopted an 'evasive policy' towards the law and order situation",
