 Pakistani security forces arrested three suspected al Qaeda-linked militants, including a Yemeni national, in a raid outside the southern port city of Karachi on Friday, intelligence officials said. The Yemeni, identified as Sheikh Yousuf, and two Pakistanis were arrested more than 60 km (40 miles) north of Karachi, an official said. Security forces seized documents, a satellite telephone and some weapons, the official said, declining to be identified. No other details were immediately available.
