Intelligence agencies have warned against a spate of suicide attacks by terrorists based in the Tribal Areas and Swat, targeting VVIPs including President Pervez Musharraf, former premier Benazir Bhutto, the US and Indian embassies and sensitive national and military installations, sources told Daily Times on Thursday. “The high value targets include the top government hierarchy, top politicians including former religious affairs minister Ejazul Haq, and the Attock Oil Refinery in Rawalpindi. Besides the US and Indian embassies, their consulates and several other religious and political personalities are also on the hit list,” said a confidential National Crisis Management Cell (NCMC) report available with Daily Times.
The report titled, “Threat to VVIPs, Politicians, Foreign Missions and Military Installations,” was forwarded on December 12 to all home secretaries and police chiefs of the four provinces, the federal capital, Azad Jammu and Kashmir and the Northern Areas.
