BANNU: The four women, including two sisters, who were gunned down in North Waziristan on Monday worked for a non-governmental organisation to impart vocational training to needy women.
The slain women belonged to poor families in Bannu district and were getting Rs1,000 only per day.
They were hired by the Bravo College of Technology, Peshawar, which had made an arrangement with an NGO, Sabawoon, to impart sewing and embroidery skills to local women in North Waziristan.
“The women worked for 16 days a month for the three-month project “Women Empowerment.” It was going to be completed on February 24 when the gory incident took place,” said a relative of the slain workers.
