They're hatching deep-laid plots, too, mark my words! | LAHORE: The identity of the people arrested for the attack on the Gujranwala mini-marathon exposes the nefarious designs of the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA), said Muhammad Basharat Raja, minister for law and local government. According to a handout issued on Wednesday, he said that of the 38 accused, only three belonged to Gujranwala. Raja said that the MMA had brought armed persons from remote areas such as Mohmand Agency, Bajor Agency, Tank, Laki Marawat, Swabi and Nowshera to "attack innocent participants of a peaceful sports competition". Raja said that the weapons recovered from the accused indicated that the attack was well thought. He said that the incident should serve as an eye-opener for those who sympathise with the MMA. |
