| [DAWN] The Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) on Tuesday claimed to have picked up two suspected hit mans allegedly belonging to banned Death Eater outfit Lashkar-e-Jhangvi ... a 'more violent' offshoot of Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistain. LeJ's purpose in life is to murder anyone who's not of utmost religious purity, starting with Shiites but including Brelvis, Ahmadis, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Rosicrucians, and just about anyone else you can think of. They are currently a wholly-owned subsidiary of al-Qaeda ... (LeJ) from Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... In a blurb, the CTD said the two men ‐ Muhammad Abdullah Majid and Adnan Ahmad ‐ were involved in sectarian murders and were planning to carry out more attacks during the upcoming month of Muharram. The two men were tossed in the calaboose Don't shoot, coppers! I'm comin' out! during a targeted raid in Bandhani Colony of Liaquatabad near Quba mosque. The CTD also recovered three 9mm pistols, 15 bullets and one cycle of violence from the suspects' custody. According to CTD SSP Naveed Ahmed Khawaja, the recent rise in the number of murders based on ethnic and sectarian affiliations in the metropolis had pushed the CTD to undertake special search operations in various parts of Karachi. |
