Two volunteers working for a polio vaccination campaign were shot dead Sunday by unidentified gunmen in Pakistan's north-western province of Khyber-Pukhtunkhwa, officials said. The attack took place in the district of Swabi, 70 kilometres north-east of the provincial capital Peshawar, DPA reported. Mian Saeed, the district police officer, said the attackers fired indiscriminately at the vaccinators on the second day of the anti-polio campaign. "Both vaccinators were volunteers and running the polio campaign without informing the concerned authorities, and did not get any security," Saeed said.
