Attack on military-run school in Peshawar by Taliban members last year killed mostly children
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan—Pakistan on Wednesday executed four men convicted of involvement in a terrorist attack on a school last year that left 151 people dead, most of them schoolchildren, police officials said.
Maulvi Abdus Salam, Hazrat Ali, Mujeeb ur Rehman, and Sabeel, who was identified by only one name, were found guilty by military courts in August of providing funds, transportation and other assistance to the militants who stormed the school. The military said the men were members of Toheed Wal Jihad, a group affiliated with the Pakistani Taliban.
