Police retain Benazir's alleged killers for 10 more days
2008-02-03
The Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) No 1 on Saturday extended for 10 more days the physical remand of two men suspected to be members of a squad of suicide bombers that killed former premier Benazir Bhutto.

The two men — 15-year-old Aitzaz Shah and Sher Zaman — were produced in court under tight security. Both were taken to court in an armoured personnel carrier and had their faces covered by police. Shah had earlier told investigators that he was next in line to target Benazir, who was assassinated in a suicide attack in Rawalpindi on December 27. Shah was recently brought to Rawalpindi for questioning and an anti-terrorism court had remanded him to police custody for 10 days.

City Police had booked the two under sections 302/24, 435/36, 120-B, 7 of the Anti-Terrorism Act and 4/5 of the Explosive Act. According to Online, the officers of the team investigating Benazir BhuttoÂ’s assassination presented the remand paper in the court. They said important information had been obtained from the accused on suicide attacks and terror related incidents during the investigation. They requested more time with the accused to confirm the information learnt.

ATC No 1 Judge Chaudhry Habibullah accepted the request of the police and ordered them to produce the accused in court on February 12, at the end of the 10-day remand. The ATC also adjourned hearing into the Maulana Azam Tariq murder case till March 3. Azam Tariq, chief of banned Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan, was gunned down in October 2003 on the outskirts of Islamabad.

#5  Paper bag
1 C flour
sparkler
M-80
track shoes

Put the M-80 in the bottom of the paper bag, with the fuse through a hole to outside. Pour the flour into the bag. Put the sparkler, head up, in the exact center of the paper bag, poking through the bottom into the ground. Put on track shoes. Light sparkler, THEN light M-80, and RUN!!!!! Makes a nice, loud BANG (most of the time).

How's that? If done right, nobody even gets hurt.
