Where do you get your information from, Fox news ?
I have my sources. Interestingly, a member of this forum seems to have corroborated my account as well.

Don't we all, some are more credible then others.
Well, I'll leave you to come to your own conclusions. But if you think army and GoP don't know about obvious American presence or that Americans would need to be driving around in one or two cars for some nefarious reasons, I'll just say that it doesn't work that way.

Do you even know how many incidents of such nature have taken place so far ?
and which one are you referring to ?Do you even know how many incidents of such nature have taken place so far ?
It is only now the police is trying to act like heroes in stopping these vehicles after all the propaganda by taliban that BW/CIA is behind all the terrorism and they are innocent babies.
How do you think US Aid is managed and distributed throughout Pakistan? There were hundreds of Americans when earthquake stuck traveling in similar way when in Islamabad and nobody stopped them then.

So does all the terrorists have used fake plates for intial recce and final execution of their terrorist activites.
I won't blame police if they suspect all those using fake plates as possible terrorist.
Do you have better suggestion? how to defferentiate if drivers of fake name plate vehicles are not terrorist and are tourists from america ? so they they may continue filming of mosques in army residence area which may be targeted tomorrow by terrorists?

What an erroneous conclusion, I was expecting a little more mature argument, but nevertheless let me clarify something.
The situation in the country is tense then ever.
You come here for charity work or on a covert mission don't be stupid enough to move around in vehicles with fake registration plates, chances of eluding the law enforcement officials are slim.
You will only raise the suspicion.

Americans continue mocking Pakistani law
By: Ashraf Javed | Published: December 13, 2009
LAHORE – Security agencies have arrested four Cobra operatives, suspected to be linked with notorious American spy agency Blackwater, while they were trying to force their entry into Lahore Cantonment on Saturday.
Well-placed sources disclosed to TheNation that the security personnel recovered lethal weapons including AK-47 rifles and spy gadgets from their possession at a checkpost near Sherpao Bridge.
The law-enforcement agencies had been put on high alert across the provincial metropolis and armed patrolling had been intensified, following the twin suicide terrorist attacks at Moon Market last week, which had killed over 50 people.
Sources claimed that the alleged arrested members of the notorious spy agency were taken to some unknown place for further interrogation after they failed to produce necessary documents and the purpose of entering into the most sensitive area in the City.
Some foreigners have taken residential apartments on rent in Cantonment area and the search operation is underway to keep a check on their activities, the sources added.
According to details, security agency personnel intercepted a suspected vehicle near Sherpao Bridge. Four persons apparently foreigners were inside the four-wheeler.
‘The suspects did not allow snap-checking as the security personnel had asked them to prove their identity and show other documents.’
The sources further revealed that the suspects started arguing with the law-enforcing agency officials as more security officials reached the spot soon after the incident.
The security officials also recovered lethal weapons including AK-47 rifles and spy devices like surveillance cameras, laptops and other equipment from their possession.
A police official, requesting his name not be mentioned, confirmed that the security officials had intercepted the suspected vehicle at Sherpao Bridge during routine checking. However, he did not mention further details regarding the recovery of lethal weapons.
Another police official said that the vehicle was released later on the intervention of federal government.
Operations Police Chief Chaudhry Shafiq Ahmed was not available for comments despite repeated contacts.
In another incident, the police also detained a suspected vehicle near Shimla Hill on Saturday but later the vehicle was released on the intervention of US Consulate high-ups.
The persons who were inside the vehicle refused to allow snap-checking. Some staff members of the US Consulate reached the spot and later the vehicle was released.
When contacted, a spokesperson of US Consulate said that the vehicle stopped near Shimla Hill belonged to the Consulate. He said that the police had stopped the vehicle only for five minutes and later it was released.
However, about the second vehicle intercepted near Sherpao Bridge, the spokesperson said that he did not know anything it. ‘That does not belong to US Consulate and I don’t know anything about that,’ he added.
Commenting on the development a retired security agency officer feared that such incidents might turn into turmoil at some point of time.
He explained that reportedly some foreigners were found misbehaving with security personnel during snap-checking and they might face retaliation.
On the other hand, the suspicious movements of foreigners in four-wheel-drive vehicles have shocked the citizens, civil society and religious organisations, as they demanded the government to keep a vigilant eye on the activities of such suspected elements.
They also said that the foreigners should also be treated like an ordinary person according to the law.
It is important to mention here that the security agencies have intercepted several suspected vehicles of foreigners at various check-posts in the City during the last couple of days.
These vehicles had fake number plates and registration numbers.
