January – March
- January 12:- At least 17 people were killed and more than 20 others injured, after a suicide car-bomber rammed his explosive-laden vehicle into a heavily fortified police station in the Bannu district, of north-western Pakistan. It was later confirmed, presumably by eyewitnesses that a Toyota Stout had apparently been used to conduct this suicide attack upon the Merian police station. There were also witness reports who claimed that parts of this police station, as well as a nearby mosque inside the compound were known to have collapsed due to the force of this suicide car bomb explosion. Witnesses reportedly stated that the sheer force of this suicide car-bomb explosion apparently also plunged the local area into darkness, as the blast damaged electricity lines within this area of the district. It was also established that the car bomber had specifically targeted the outer wall of the police station, which was consequently based within a densely populated area of the district. Reports have suggested that more than 50 police officers were inside the police complex at the time of this suicide attack, with local reports suggesting that all those killed were Frontier Corps officials, who act as a federal paramilitary police force within the country. This particular police station that was targeted, is based near the Janikhel tribal area, which is known to act as a buffer zone to the militancy-infested North Waziristan tribal region of north-western Pakistan. This suicide car bombing occurred as U.S. Vice-president, Joe Biden arrived in Islamabad whilst denying that the United States had imposed a war on terror on Pakistan. The Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan later claimed responsibility for this suicide car-bomb attack, whilst threatening that such attacks would continue, unless drone attacks were halted against their Al Qaeda and Pakistani Taliban affiliated militant networks and sanctuaries, located most especially within the highly volatile North Waziristan tribal region, which is located on the Afghan-Pakistan border, of north-western Pakistan.[1]
- 25 January At least thirteen people killed while 70 others injured in a suicide bomb explosion in a mourning procession of Imam Hussain near its concluding point at Kerbala Gamay Shah at Bhat Gate in Lahore[2] and few minutes after Lahore blast, a suicide bomber rammed his explosive-laden motorbike into a police van at Malir 15 area of Karachi, killing at least three people while 5 people were injured.[3]

Khan and his family managed to escape the attack although his house was destroyed by the blast and a few other civilians near the blast site were killed when the incident occurred. Khan works at the Crime Investigation Department (CID) and is infamous for having led tough measures and police operations against notorious criminal elements and members of underworld groups in Karachi (including the likes of Rehman Dakait); a column published in The Express Tribune dubbed Chaudhry Aslam Khan as the "Sultan Rahi" of Sindh Police.[25] He is a recipient of the Pakistan Police Medal, Qauid-e-Azam Police Medal and the Tamgha-i-Imtiaz, which was awarded to him by the President in early 2011. This was the second attempt on his life, with police officials confirming that Khan had apparently been on the hit list of militant groups for quite a long time. Neighboring houses were also severely damaged as a result of the attack while other houses located not far from the vicinity of the blast site had their windows shattered. There were also schools located near the house which had their buildings and infrastructure damaged, such as the Haque Academy, Beaconhouse and the Washington International School; the schools were temporarily closed for repair. Among the victims of the blast included a female schoolteacher from the Washington International School and her son, Khan's police guards and cook, and the son and driver of a neighbour.[26] When responding to the attack on his house, Khan remarked that he will not step back or be cowed and would carry on his "jihad against the terrorists."[25] He also added: "Why don’t they come attack me in the open? I didn’t know these terrorists are such cowards that they will attack sleeping children" and threatened that he would teach the terrorists who attacked his house a lesson that "even their next generations would remember."[26]
