A report has said that footprints of the Islamic State (IS) have started to appear in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's town of Bannu days after reports suggested the presence of the terror group in other parts of Pakistan.

Walk-chalking welcoming the IS chief Abu Bakr al Bagdadi and paying him tributes in Urdu language have appeared in various parts of the city that borders North Waziristan tribal agency, known to be the Pakistan Taliban hotbed, reported the Dawn.

Earlier, pamphlets believed to be from the IS were also distributed in various parts of Peshawar and the Afghan refugee camp but were seized later on.
