More Quetta mosque attack suspects arrested
Police continued to round up people for questioning on Thursday in the deadly attack on a Shiite Muslim mosque this month that killed 48 people, a day after investigators identified two of the suicide bombers. Fifty people were taken into custody in the first several days after the July 4 suicide bombing in Quetta. âWe have picked up more people overnight after identifying two attackers,â a senior police officer in Quetta said. Police said the attackers had been identified as Noor Ahmed and Mohammad Khan. Meanwhile on Thursday, the al-Badr militancy wing denied police claims that Ahmed was a member of the insurgency battling Indian troops in Kashmir.
