A splinter group of Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan claimed responsibility for a suicide attack that killed eight people and injured 14 others in the country's northwest Charsadda district on Monday morning, Shanghai Daily reported.
"We have carried out the attack that was aimed at the session court," Ehsanullah Ehsan, spokesman for the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan Jammat-ul-Ahrar group told local media.
Saeed Wazir, the deputy inspector general police, said the suicide bomber opened fire at the policemen who tried to stop him for checking at the entrance of the court and later blew up himself upon being cornered.
