KARACHI, Pakistan (AA) - One policeman and four "militants" were killed Wednesday in a suspected suicide bombing in Pakistan-administered Kashmir, according to officials.

It occurred in the Rawlakot district, where police raided a militant “hideout" on the city's outskirts to arrest suspected terrorists, regional police chief Sardar Mohammad Zaheer told reporters.

The suspected militants, he added, opened fire on police, and one blew himself up, resulting in the death of a policeman and four "terrorists."

Seven policemen were also injured.

Aaj News reported the deaths of two policemen.

The slain militants are believed to be associated with the Tehreek-Taliban Pakistan, a consortium of several outlawed groups in Pakistan, police sources said.
