Dera Ismail Khan police have arrested an undisclosed number of people on suspicion of firing a rocket at the house of the brother of Muttahida Majlis Amal (MMA) leader Maulana Fazalur Rehman in the Saddar police precincts late Friday. “Yes. Police have arrested some suspects,” spokesman for police Malik Ramzan told Daily Times on the phone from DI Khan. He, however, refused to say the number of people arrested. He said some unknown attackers fired a Russian-made rocket at Maulana Attaur Rehman’s house at around 11:45pm on Friday. The rocket hit the upper storey of the house, damaging a wall. No one was injured. Last Tuesday, the Jamiat Ulama-e-Islam-Fazl organised a clerics’ convention for the protection of madrassas in Peshawar. The convention declared suicide attacks and forced Sharia un-Islamic. JUI-F DI Khan Secretary Ahmed Kamran said the houses of Maulana Fazalur Rehman and Attaur Rehman were located at the same place. “The rocket was fired from Bannu Road and it made holes in three walls of the upper floor,” he said. “Attaur Rehman was in Lahore at the time of the attack,” he added.
