ISLAMABAD (AFP) - – Several gunmen who escaped after launching a deadly attack on the headquarters of the Pakistani army near Islamabad, have taken a number of security personnel hostage and are encircled by troops, a military spokesman said.
 
"There are more than two terrorists who have taken some security personnel as hostages. Efforts are under way for their safe recovery," army spokesman Major General Athar Abbas told state-run Pakistan television.
 
"Security forces have surrounded the terrorists. We are trying to recover the hostages safely," he added.
