Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) on Sunday arrested three suspected terrorists belonging to Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM). During a press conference in Garden headquarter Karachi, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Umer Shahid said that three suspects were held in Malir's Ghazi Town graveyard while smuggling weapons.
The three have been identified as Anwar Hussain, Asif Mumtaz alias Meer and Khurram Sheheryar alias Lamba. "One of them was the unit incharge. As the party had broken into various factions, these three belong to the old one," he said. The suspects confessed to their crimes and revealed the names of their heads. "I committed the murders on the orders of Muqarram Zaidi who was our unit incharge," said one of the suspected terrorist.
At least six Kalashnikovs, LMG, six repeaters, five TT pistols and two 7mm rifles were recovered from the possession of the suspects. The CTD has said that the weapons were used to spread terror in the city.
