Interior Secretary Syed Kamal Shah said on Monday that the government had “credible evidence” that “hostile foreign intelligence agencies” were fanning terrorism in Pakistan.

He was addressing the SenateÂ’s Standing Committee on Interior Affairs. Shah did not identify the agencies.
“Investigation into Benazir’s killing is going on positively,” he said, without giving details of the probe.
Senator Talha Mahmood, the committee chairman, said they did not press Shah for details. “We asked officials to give a timeframe for the investigation, but they said it would be difficult,” Mahmood told reporters. Sources said he told the meeting that 22 of the 23 people killed in the Liaqat Bagh bombing had been identified, and the fingerprints of the alleged suicide bomber would be verified by NADRA. |
