Four suspected terrorists caught

By Mubasher Bukhari

LAHORE. Security forces arrested four suspected terrorists who were planning a suicide bombing in the city, intelligence officials told Daily Times on Wednesday.

The suspects who were wearing jackets with several large pockets were disguised as street vendors, officials said, adding that security forces also seized explosives and weapons from their carts. The arrests came from the information gleaned from another suspected terrorist Tariq Gujjar, who was arrested four days ago. Gujjar told investigators that he was a member of an Al Qaeda gang headed by Munna Pathan. He said the gang planned to bomb the American Consulate in Lahore. Munna Pathan is still at large and security forces were making raids to apprehend him.
