For the second time this week, the Karachi police have made a big bust. They claimed to have arrested three militants who were planning to attack the main procession during Ashura. On Friday, district Malir police carried out a raid at a militant hideout in the Quetta Town area of Sohrab Goth. The police team, led by Malir SSP Rao Anwar, faced resistance from the militants who fired at the police from their hideouts. The police also retaliated with full force and managed to kill three alleged militants. The rest of their accomplices escaped. These militants were definitely busy preparing for an attack on the main procession at Tibet Centre during Ashura,” SSP Anwar told The Express Tribune. “We carried out the raid on a tip-off but the militants attacked us when we reached.” Read details in daily Express Tribune
