LAHORE: Police have arrested three suspects near Minar-e-Pakistan and recovered arms and ammunition from their possession, Express News reported on Saturday.
Express News correspondent Noman Sheikh reported that the three men hailed from Punjab and had planned on targeting processions on Muharram 8 and 9.
Their facilitator is reported to be based in the tribal areas. Police are also using their mobile phone records to track down accomplices.
