Paks detain 45 in car bomb investigation
2002-06-24
Pakistani authorities working with the FBI have detained 45 Muslim militants for questioning about deadly car bombings at a U.S. Consulate and a Karachi hotel. The men were detained late Sunday in the eastern city of Lahore. They have not been charged in either attack. An official said the men belong to two banned Sunni Muslim groups — Lashkar-e-Jhangvi and Sipah-e-Sahaba. The detentions were based on leads from some of the 28 men — including several Arabs — rounded up last week as part of a crackdown on Islamic extremists and al-Qaeda members believed hiding in Pakistan.
