| Paks nab two more 'most wanted' |
| 2002-07-03 |
| Two more of the nine 'most wanted' men have been picked up by the law enforcement agencies, raising the number detained to four. Sources said on Tuesday that the law enforcement agencies picked up a man named Sharib for his involvement in the Sheraton and US consulate bomb explosions. The government announced an award of Rs1.5 million on his arrest. Another suspect, Naveedul Hasan, wanted in the US consulate car bomb explosion, was also detained and both were being questioned. A reward of Rs2 million was announced on the arrest of Naveedul Hasan. However, officially the police denied the arrest of any suspect on the 'most wanted' list. Sources said Naveedul Hasan was picked up when a paramilitary force along with the agents of the American Federal Bureau of Investigation raided a place in Kharadar. The police remained unaware of the raid and the ultimate arrest of Naveedul Hasan, which showed a complete lack of coordination between the law enforcement agencies. And also accounts for the fact that he was actually nabbed. |
