The 7th anniversary of 25 Shia Muslims massacre in Kohistan tragedy was observed by paying homage to the victims of the takfiri terrorism.

Terrorists had massacred 25 Shia Muslims near Kohistan on February 28, 2012 while they were on way from Rawalpindi to Gilgit-Baltistan.
It was also tragic that armed terrorists were clad in security officials’ uniforms and they pulled passengers out of the bus and murdered them after having confirmed their Shia identity.
It was the worst tragedy in the history of Gilgit-Baltistan since 1988.
It had triggered Pakistan-wide protest movement for the time being. However, notorious takfiri terrorists of banned Deobandi outfits have not been awarded capital punishment, so far.
