 Seven trained commanders of Al Qaeda have reached Pakistan to create unrest across the country, with the terror outfit planning, in collaboration with Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), to carry out attacks and target President Asif Ali Zardari and all four provincial chief ministers, Daily Times learnt on Wednesday. An official told the newspaper that intelligence agencies had warned in a communiqué about a meeting of senior representatives of Al Qaeda and TTP -- which was held in Paktiya province of Afghanistan on May 3, 2009.

The participants of the meeting included Amanullah Afghani, Shahidullah Khan, Rehmatullah Khan, Maulvi Khalid Shah, Abdul Latif Afghani, Muhammad Saeed Bin Talha, Muhammad Shaheen Kawrai, Ahmed Ali Tanwancy and others. It has been learnt that the seven Al Qaeda trained commanders in Pakistan masterminded attacks in Iraq. Meanwhile, a private TV channel reported that the Interior Ministry had issued a letter saying the TTP had sent suicide bombers to Islamabad, various parts of Punjab and Sindh. The letter says that suicide bombers had reportedly entered Karachi, Multan, Faisalabad, Lahore, Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Posted by: Fred 2009-06-04 |
