The bodies of head constable Nissar Ahmed and special police officer Sheer Mohammed were recovered from Snub Nullah, near the site of attack, on Monday, a police spokesman said.

The other two -- constable Manzoor Ahmed and special police officer Jan Mohammad -- reported back on Sunday night at a security picket in Gool area after escaping from the captivity of the terrorists, the spokesman said.

Eleven people, including nine policemen, were killed in the attack on Sunday.
