At least three police officers killed in Pakistan during clashes with Islamists

Country's interior minister says supporters of outlawed party Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan opened fire at rally near Lahore

At least three Pakistani police officers were shot dead and 70 more wounded when supporters of a banned Islamist party opened fire at a rally near Lahore on Wednesday, the country's interior minister has said.

The outlawed party Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) has been behind major anti-France protests that earlier this year led to the embassy issuing a warning for all French citizens to leave the country.
