Iga Swiatek holds off Elise Mertens, reaches Stuttgart quarterfinals
The World No.1 Iga Swiatek continued her victorious clay-court camping as she defeated Elise Mertens 6-3, 6-4 in the second round of the Tennis Grand Prix.
Peshawar, 5 August: In a bizarre statement, a senior Pakistani police official today compared the relationship between the
Taliban and police as one between a bowler and a batsman involved in a test match.
Inspector General Police (IGP) Ihsan Ghani of Khyber- Paktunkhwa made the statement while speaking to the media.
“We’re the batsmen as they keep bowling. Sometimes we score a six, other times we lose a wicket. This is a test match, not a T-20 so this is on-going with them,” he was quoted by The Express Tribune as saying.
Work is underway to combat the threats the police is receiving and a similar incident like the Dera Ismail Khan jailbreak would not happen in the future, the IG said.
In the jailbreak last week over 250 prisoners, including many terrorists, escaped the prison. PTI
