Nationwide terror cell uncovered: Cheema
2007-08-22
Law-enforcement agencies have traced a network of terrorists operating across Pakistan and arrested two members allegedly linked to last monthÂ’s suicide bombings in Islamabad, Interior Ministry spokesman Brig (r) Javed Iqbal Cheema told reporters here on Tuesday.

Cheema said the security and intelligence agencies had uncovered a well-connected gang of terrorists that were planning suicide bombings across Pakistan. He said these terrorists were linked with Lal Masjid and Waziristan, adding that more members of the network would be arrested soon. Asked about any information learnt from the suspected terrorists since their arrest, Cheema said, “Details will be shared with the media once the whole network is busted.” He said more arrests were expected over the next few days and a state of high alert had been placed on all security agencies in this regard.
