12 Afghans held near border
QUETTA: Security forces have detained 10 Afghan nationals in the border areas of Chaman and Dalbundian for trying to illegally cross the border into Pakistan, while two others were arrested for suspected involvement in terrorist activities. "These Afghans have been held under the Foreigners' Act," an official source told Daily Times. "They are being investigated by the Federal Investigation Agency. Once the investigation is completed, they would be handed back to Afghan authorities."

“150 kilogrammes of explosive material was seized from the two...”
Meanwhile, in Dalbundian, two other Afghan nationals suspected of having terrorist links were arrested. Sources said that 150 kilogrammes of explosive material was seized from the two. A government official, requesting anonymity, told Daily Times that the two had planned to go abroad from Pakistan, apparently with some terrorist motives. "But timely official action has foiled their designs." The authorities said the two Afghans have been shifted to a safe location for further investigation.
