Despite the brief confrontation, the robbers managed to escape, leaving their motorcycle behind. The victims of this incident were policemen currently undergoing training at the Khyber Police Training School and were on leave at the time.

In response to this brazen attack, special teams have been formed under the supervision of ASP Chamkani to apprehend the culprits. An investigation into the incident is actively underway.
