Jhangvi thug arrested
Police arrested an thug affiliated with Lashkar-i-Jhangvi, a banned sectarian outfit. Police said Asghar Ali had provided shelter to the assailants of a man gunned down in Bahawalpur while jogging last year. Police said that the killers had been identified and they would soon be apprehended. Meanwhile, arrested hitman, Abdullah Jan admitted his involvement in the bomb blast at Shia Jamia Masjid some six months ago where nine people were killed.
Lashkar-i-Jhanvi is either a terrorist outfit with a sideline as crooks and robberts, or a robber band with a sideline as a terrorist outfit. They specialize in bumping off Shi'a Muslims, who are, of course, not really Muslims to the Hanafi Sunnis of western Pakland.
