Five 'suicide bombers' held in Quetta
Security forces on Friday arrested five would-be suicide bombers and scores of illegal Afghan immigrants during raids in Quetta, officials said. "Intelligence agents raided a house and arrested five suspected suicide bombers, along with five suicide jackets and explosive material," a security official told AFP on condition of anonymity. They are being interrogated at a secret location, he added. Religious paraphernalia and pictures of Taliban leaders were confiscated from the rented house in Pashtoonabad, the official said. "Preliminary investigation reveals that three of the suspected bombers are residents of Waziristan and two are locals," the official added.Posted by: Fred 2009-02-14 |
