| Four Turkish nationals arrested from Zhob |
| 2009-11-11 |
| [Dawn] Security forces arrested four Turkish nationals, including a woman, in Balochistan's Zhob district. Official sources said the Turkish nationals were arrested from the Mari Khawa check post. They were travelling from Dera Ismail Khan to Zhob and did not have any valid travel documents. Sources added that security agencies were interrogating the four Turkish nationals. However, they said it was premature to speculate over their affiliation with any militant group. Zhob is considered to be a transit point for militants. Pakistani Taliban leader Abdullah Mehsud was killed in an operation in the area in July 2007. |
