PESHAWAR, Pakistan, Dec. 21 (UPI) -- Pakistan has executed at least six accused terrorists since last week's Taliban massacre at a school in Peshawar, marking the country's first executions since lifting a five-year suspension on capital punishment last year.
Four men were hanged Sunday in connection to a 2003 assassination attempt on then-President Pervez Musharraf, while two others faced the same fate Friday, one for involvement in the same plot and another for an attack on a Pakistani army headquarters in 2009. All of the men were executed at a jail in the central city of Faisalabad.
