The Tariq Geedar group of the outlawed Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) was behind the gun attack on a Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) flight in Peshawar that left a woman passenger dead and two crew members wounded, security officials said.

They said the group was based in Darra Adamkhel and was headed by one Khalfa.

“We have some important leads,” claimed an official.

He said that the roof of a school in Suliemankhel, an area near Peshawar, was used for targeting the Airbus when it was landing at the Bacha Khan International Airport late on Tuesday night.

The school was closed for summer vacation and its watchman was absent from duty, the official said.

He said assailants had affixed an extra barrel to an AK-47 rifle to enhance its fire range and used tracer bullets to ensure that they hit the target.
