2004-08-08
A woman was arrested with a gun at a walima reception attended by Prime Minister Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain and prime minister-in-waiting Shaukat Aziz in Islamabad on Saturday, witnesses and police told Daily Times. Tehseen Gul Agha, 65, was among the guests at the walima reception of Central Board of Revenue Chairman Abdullah Yousaf's son at the Marriott Hotel. Security officials whisked the woman away and found a revolver on her, police said.
"Put the roscoe down and step away witcher hands up, lady!"
The woman, her husband Ghazanfar Agha, 70, and daughter Farhana, 30, were taken to the Secretariat Police Station for questioning.
"So what's with the rod, lady?"
"Go screw, flatfoot, I ain't talkin' 'til me moutpiece gets here!"
Police said a case was registered against the woman while her daughter and husband were allowed to go. The woman was later shifted to the women's police station in Islamabad. The family is reported to be from Murree. Security around politicians and government officials has been tightened recently following attempted assassinations of senior figures.
