Five Pakistanis held for planning attack in southern Afghanistan
 Five Pakistanis suspected of planning attacks in the south of war-shattered Afghanistan have been arrested, Afghan police said yesterday. They had crossed from Pakistan into the Afghan province of Zabul and were arrested on Wednesday while travelling by bus to the former Taleban stronghold of Kandahar, provincial police chief Alah Yar told AFP. The men were arrested on a tip-off from US-led forces who had kept them under surveillance, said Ghulam Mohammed Aka, chief of police in Shahr-e-Safa district where the arrests were made.Posted by: Steve 2005-07-01 |
