Six suspected terrorists acquitted
Anti-terrorist Court No I (ATC-I) on Thursday acquitted six men charged with planning acts of terrorism.
I think we're beginning to see a pattern here...
Police claimed to have seized three suicide belts, five detonators and other explosives from them.
New Town police had arrested Shafiqur Rehman, Abdul Khaliq, Niaz Ahmad, Abdul Basit, Abdul Majid and Abdul Saboor from outside the Rawalpindi Arts Council. Police also claimed to have seized three suicide belts, five detonators and other explosives from them.

The court rejected the bail application of Khairullah Mehsud, a resident of South Waziristan. The court is trying three suspected terrorists -- Khairullah Mehsud, Fidaullah and Khurram Shahzad for their alleged involvement in an attack on a Frontier Constabulary (FC) checkpost on Margalla Road, Islamabad. Eight FC personnel were killed, and seven others injured, when a suicide bomber blew himself up at the checkpost.

The men were also allegedly involved in the Hamza Camp suicide attack case. An unidentified suicide bomber rammed his explosives-laden car into a 72-seater bus parked in front of Hamza Camp on Benazir Bhutto Shaheed Road in Rawalpindi on November 24, 2007 The bus carrying Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) officials to work was destroyed and over 25 people were killed.

Meanwhile, the court also adjourned the hearing of cases against former Lal Masjid chief cleric Abdul Aziz until December 7 as the defence lawyer, Shaukat Aziz Siddiqui, in Saudi Arabia to perform haj. On September 16, the court dropped terrorism charges against the former cleric, and co-accused in three cases.
