3 suicide bombers killed as Rangers foil 'terror attack' in Rohri
[DAWN] The Sindh Rangers on Friday killed three "jacket wallahs" in Rohri who were planning to target the Bab-e-Karbala Imambargah
...since Pakistain is very religiously correct, Shia Moslems can't call their houses of worship 'mosques,' which are reserved for Sunnis. It's not clear if imambargahs are used for explosives storage like mosques are...
, read a statement issued by the paramilitary force.

The "suspicious men" were signalled to stop by Rangers personnel at a checkpoint. "An exchange of fire took place when the suspicious men tried to escape," read the statement, adding that the three men were killed in the gunfire.

Rangers found suicide jackets on the men, which were diffused with the help of the bomb disposal squad.

Initial investigations revealed that the "turbans were associated with a banned outfit" and their target for the "terror attack" was the Bab-e-Karbala Imambargah. The process to ascertain their identities is underway.
