3 arrested in tribal areas trying to enter Afghanistan
Law-enforcement personnel arrested three people, including an Arab national, in the Mohmand Agency when they were trying to cross into Afghanistan, officials said. They claimed the arrested persons were Al Qaeda suspects who were trying to enter Afghanistan through an unfrequented route at the time of their arrest by the border security force. An official said the Arab national, who belonged to the United Arab Emirates, had been identified as Mohammad Khalid Rashid Ahmad while his two Pakistani friends - Murad and Saif Ali - belonged to Multan. The arrested persons have been handed over to a secret agency in the tribal region for interrogation.Posted by: Dan Darling 2004-08-12 |
