Police arrested around 17 more suspected Talibans in two raids on rented buildings in the Pashtoonabad locality of the provincial capital on Wednesday, according to sources. Sources said the arrested men had been shifted to an unidentified location for interrogation. Maulana Noor Mohammad, an MNA and the chief of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam's (JUI) Quetta chapter, confirmed the arrests, but denied that the men had links with the Taliban.
