ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad police in association with intelligence agencies on Wednesday busted a network of suicide bombers and arrested more than 10 terrorists who were planning suicide attacks.
Sources said the arrested terrorists belonged to a banned militant outfit and that their network stretched across the country.
Sources further said the arrests followed investigation into a suicide blast in the federal capital few days ago.
On Dec 23, 2022, a policeman was martyred and two suspected terrorists were killed in a suicide blast in the I-10 sector of the federal capital on Friday, confirmed Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah.
The minister, in a statement, said a man and a woman were in a vehicle which entered Islamabad from Rawalpindi on Friday morning. A team of the Eagle Squad stopped it for snap checking when the two suspects blew up the car which was laden with explosive material. He said the terrorists aimed at hiting some “high-value targets” in the capital city.
Mr Sanaullah said six people, including four policemen, were injured in the incident, adding that the injured personnel were out of danger and being treated at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS).
