Pakistani security agencies are interrogating three Iraqis arrested this week for suspected links to terror groups, officials said on Thursday. The three were picked up from a house in the Islamabad suburb of Bara Kaho on Monday by a special unit of the Federal Investigation Agency, a security official said. âTheir names do not appear on any list of wanted terrorists but we have suspicions that they may be connected to local or foreign terror groups,â the official told AFP. Two pistols, 140 rounds of bullets and some documents in Arabic language were recovered from their possession, he said. Preliminary investigations showed that the suspects had entered Pakistan via Iran four years ago and had been moving from one place to another across the country, the official said.
