According to the police, the case was registered under the name of an FC constable, Abdul Shakoor, 24 hours after the attack. The case includes sections on murder, attempted murder and anti-terrorism, police said.

The attack on FC Madadgar Centre took place on May 17, during which five security personnel were injured. One of them, motorway police officer Mohammad Idrees, succumbed to the wounds a day later.

Security personnel deployed at the centre gunned down all the five terrorists who tried to drive their explosives-laden vehicle into the premises.

Eyewitnesses said they heard multiple explosions and sounds of sporadic gunfire. The area where the attack took place is mostly residential, with a few government buildings also located in the vicinity.

As per a statement issued by Inter-Services Public Relations, the attempt was in response to the killing of a key terrorist a day earlier in Killi Almas.
