Two Dutch diplomats briefly held with arms
ISLAMABAD: Security personnel on Tuesday briefly detained two Dutch employees of the Netherlands embassy in the federal capital after arms, ammunition and explosives were recovered from their car.
Verrry interesting ...
According to police sources, the two diplomats were detained when their vehicle was stopped and searched near Mariott Hotel. "Both diplomats were later released after Dutch embassy officials intervened," the sources confirmed.

Security officials stopped the diplomats' dark blue BMW at 11:30am between Marriott Hotel and the Secretariat area. Upon searching the car, they found two handguns, four magazines, two smoke grenades, two flash bombs and six bullet-proof jackets and detained the two diplomats, who were identified only as Smith and William.

"They were unable to provide any justification for being armed and keeping bombs," the sources said.
And I'll just bet they completely refused to state for whom the weapons were intended ...
Police were planning to take the men in custody when top diplomatic officials intervened and the arrested diplomats were allowed to leave with their weapons. The Dutch embassy did not offer comments despite repeated attempts to contact them.
So is this an op that went wrong or a couple of 'diplomats' who have flipped ...
