men include three brothers Inam, Abdul Haadi and Obaidur Rehman and two others, including an Afghan refugee.

The men were taken into custody by security forces who had traveled from Swat
...a valley and an administrative district in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province of Pakistain, located 99 mi from Islamabad. It is inhabited mostly by Pashto speakers. The place has gone steadily downhill since the days when Babe Ruth was the Sultan of Swat...
to Akbarpura on a tip-off. They had first raided a mosque and had later raided a house from where the men were locked away

Fifty-five people, including three key people, have reportedly been locked away

during the past two days in the case.

On the other hand, District Police Officer (DPO) Swat Gul Afzal Khan Afridi has claimed that the criminal mastermind behind the attack on Malala was a man named Ataullah.

Afzal moreover stated that Ataullah was from Swat's Sangota region and police and security forces had locked away

a number of individuals from in and around the region.

The DPO moreover stated that the detainees were shifted to Qazi's guesthouse an undisclosed location for questioning.

He said soon the accused would be brought before the public.

Moreover, police have been questioning people in the town of Mingora, in the Swat Valley, where the shooting took place.

AP adds: Afridi declined to give any details about the locked away

or what role they're suspected of having in the shooting. He said he did not want to endanger the ongoing investigation.

Earlier on Friday, Interior Minister Rehman Malik
Pak politician, Interior Minister under the Gilani government. Malik is a former Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) intelligence officer who rose to head the FIA during Benazir Bhutto's second tenure. Malik was tossed from his FIA job in 1998 after documenting the breath-taking corruption of the Sharif family. By unhappy coincidence Nawaz Sharif became PM at just that moment and Malik moved to London one step ahead of the button men. He had to give up the interior ministry job because he held dual Brit citizenship.
told news hounds that the two gunnies who staged the attack were not among those tossed in the calaboose
Maw! They're comin' to get me, Maw!
, but he said Sherlocks had identified the criminal masterminds of the shooting and efforts were under way to capture all those involved.

Between April and June, authorities had tossed in the calaboose
Maw! They're comin' to get me, Maw!
nearly 100 faceless myrmidons in the Swat Valley, said two security officials and a senior government official.

One of those tossed in the calaboose
Maw! They're comin' to get me, Maw!
was a woman identified as Naheed Bibi, who was married to Fazlullah and had been sent by him to the valley to help reactivate thug cells there, the officials added.

Her interrogation led security officials to over 60 telephone numbers of SIM cards she and her aides had bought in various northwestern cities. By monitoring all the numbers, authorities rounded up the faceless myrmidons -- including several would-be jacket wallahs -- and a large number of weapons and explosives was also seized, the officials said.

The officials did not want to be identified because they were not authorised to speak to the media.
