KARACHI: Pakistani police arrested a suspected Islamic militant accused of training religious students to become suicide bombers, said a police official on Tuesday. Senior police official Chaudhry Aamir Hameed said the suspected man, Mohammad Ashraf Qureshi, was arrested with two other men in a raid in Karachi. "He has been targeting young boys in madrasas, brain washing them and turning them into suicide bombers," said Hameed, adding that Qureshi was also involved in the training of the suicide bombers who killed prominent Shia cleric Allama Hassan Turabi in Karachi last month. Police identified the suicide bomber who killed Turabi as 16-year-old Abdul Karim. Qureshi was also known to have visited Afghanistan, which has been hit by a wave of suicide bombings in recent months, although it was not known if he organised attacks there, the police official said.
