PAKISTAN-UNREST-NORTHWEST-PRISON
Pakistani security officials gather at the damaged main entrance of a prison following an attack by armed militants in Bannu on April 15, 2012. Some 384 prisoners including militants escaped early on April 15 from a jail in northwestern Pakistan after an attack by insurgents armed with guns, grenades and rockets, officials said. More than 150 heavily-armed Islamist militants stormed the central prison outside the restive northwestern town of Bannu bordering the lawless tribal regions where Taliban and Al-Qaeda linked militants are known to operate.
