The Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) has given another two days to the government to end the military operation in the Swat district of NWFP and pull out all security force personnel from the area, and warned that it will expand its actions from Waziristan to Kohistan and settled districts if their demand is not met. Maulana Omar, a spokesman for the TTP, told Dawn by telephone on January 2 that an earlier deadline for withdrawal of troops had lapsed on December 15, but they did not resume their activities because the entire nation was in mourning following the tragic death of Benazir Bhutto. "Now we extend the deadline for two days and ask the government to withdraw troops and halt the operation in Swat. Otherwise, we will attack the government everywhere and it will be an all-out war," he warned.

Elections remained peaceful throughout the North West Frontier Province (NWFP) on February 18 amid fears of suicide attacks, bomb blasts and violence from militants, Daily Times reported. NWFP Special Home Secretary Khalid Khan Umarzai said that the elections all over the province were held with a peaceful atmosphere, except for an incident in Karak district in which one person was killed and another wounded when supporters of the Awami National Party and an independent candidate clashed in the PF-40 constituency’s Ghara Khel polling station. However, minor violent incidents were reported from the province. Militants blew up Middle School Shakardara polling station in the Matta area of Swat district and set ablaze the election material. Gunship helicopters later shelled the Shakardara area but no casualties were reported. Militants also targeted a security forces convoy with remote-controlled bombs in the Shakar Dehri and Charbagh areas, while a bomb exploded in the Dheri area of PF-83 constituency. No casualty was reported in these incidents. Peshawar remained peaceful during the elections and no untoward incident was reported in any part of the city. In Charsadda, Dera Ismail Khan and Bannu, no violent incidents were reported. According to Dawn, women voters were barred from casting their votes in several parts of the NWFP. In some areas, polling was stopped over allegations of bogus voting, leading to scuffles among female supporters of a number of candidates. In the outskirts of Peshawar, some political parties had joined hands in barring women from casting their votes. Tribal elders and local leaders of ANP, PPP, PML-Q, PML-N and JUI-F struck an agreement on February 17-night to keep women out of the electoral process, some people of Shakkarpura area of Peshawar told Dawn. "The local leadership, after holding a jirga (council), decided that women will not cast their votes. They made the announcement on Sunday night from a local mosque," they said. Threatening pamphlets issued by militants and religious extremists were plastered on walls on the Kohat road close to Darra Adam Khel, warning women of suicide attacks if they came out to vote. Similar threats forced reportedly women to remain indoors in the Baddabher, Sarbund, Matanai, Sungo, Daibahadur, Achar, Ghari Ata Mohammad, Bahdur Kalay and Mathra areas. In Timergara, women were stopped from voting in the Lower Dir district, officials and witnesses said. The number of registered women voters in the district was 145,377. No woman turned up at any of the polling stations. The overall turnout was also low because of the boycott announced by Jamaat-i-Islami which has a large following in the district. Women voters in Bachkan Ahmadzai, Aezerkhel, Jhangkhel and Chandukhel were also forced to stay indoors. The situation was the same in most areas of the Karak, Swabi and Hangu districts.
