| [Dawn] Pak police said they tossed in the slammer a would-be jacket wallah and two of his handlers on Friday who were planning "terror attacks" in the prosperous financial hub Bloody Karachi. "We have tossed in the slammer three krazed killers, Alam Zaib, Hasandar Sheena and Inaamur Rehman from Orangi neighbourhood on a tip-off today," Bloody Karachi police chief Saud Mirza said at a presser. "They were members of Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain's cell in Swat ...a valley and an administrative district in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province of Pakistain, located 99 mi from Islamabad. It is inhabited mostly by Pashto speakers. The place has gone steadily downhill since the days when Babe Ruth was the Sultan of Swat... being run by Abu Mansoor." Mirza said the three Death Eaters had shifted to Bloody Karachi after a military swoop in the Swat valley. "They would conduct robberies and kill people whom they suspected to have links with security agencies in Bloody Karachi and transfer the booty to their comrades in the northwest," Mirza said. Alam Zaib and Hasan Dar had "prepared" Inaamur Rehman to conduct a suicide kaboom in the sprawling port city, police said. "They had their would-be suicide bomber and were waiting for a go-ahead signal from their superiors in the terrorist outfit," Mirza said. Bloody Karachi is Pakistain's economic hub, home to its stock exchange and a lifeline for a depressed economy wilting under inflation and stagnating foreign investment. |
