According to data provided by the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police on December 15, at least 12 members of the Shia community and four Sunnis have been killed in sectarian attacks in the first 10 months of 2014, which is lower that the data of previous years, reports The Express Tribune. In 2012 57 people were killed in targeted sectarian attacks, including 12 members of the Sunni sect and 45 Shias. In the corresponding period in 2013, 43 Shias and nine Sunnis were among the 52 people killed. A Police Official said that a major reason for the decrease in targeted sectarian killings was the dismantling of extremists’ safe havens by military operations in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). “Attacks on Shias were considerably higher and that is probably because some elements among the militants provided sanctuary to such terrorists in the past,” he said, adding, “FATA has served as a breeding ground for all types of criminals and militants as it remained ungoverned for many decades after the creation of Pakistan.” “There is widespread corruption among authorities and these are the causes identified by the Post Crisis Need Assessment (PCNA)."
