| 2008-07-24 |
| Pakistani and British security agencies are looking for a suspected female terrorist, traveling with children, who may enter the United Kingdom through Pakistan, sources told Daily Times on Wednesday. The British authorities had declared "red alert" at Heathrow Airport on Monday and Tuesday, the sources said, adding that Pakistani security personnel checked a UK-bound flight at Lahore's Allama Iqbal International Airport following the reports. The security forces searched passengers on-board the Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) flight PK-757, the sources said. On the directions of the security agencies the plane parked away from the airport's building. The security personnel especially searched women who were traveling along with children. A Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) official at the airport said the security agencies used sniffing dogs for the identification-and-search operation. |
