Police arrested 47 suspected Taliban militants in raids in various places in Quetta and its suburbs on Tuesday, officials said. “They are all newcomers who crossed the border illegally over the past one week,” said SSP Qazi Waheed. “We believe they are Taliban fighters,” he said, adding that the detainees were being interrogated to determine their motive and possible links here.Police last month rounded up more than 50 suspected Taliban, six of them from a hospital in Quetta where they had been receiving treatment. The wounded Afghans were from neighbouring Afghan provinces of Helmand and Kandahar.
