Police arrest suspect involved in attack on Quaid's residency
SYED ALI SHAH —
QUETTA: Balochistan police arrested the main accused involved in thedisastrous attack on Quaid-i-Azam residency after carrying out a successful raid in Hazar Ganji area of Quetta on Friday.
Addressing a press conference, Senior Superintendent Police (Operations) Aitzaz Ahmed Goraya said police arrested the proclaimed offender Pukar alias Pako — resident of Shah Rag Harnai district — who was nominated as suspect in carrying out the attack on Quaid’s residency in Ziarat on June 15, 2013.
Goraya stated that up till now 10 suspects involved in the attack on Quaid’s residency have been arrested. He said that police acted on a tip off and apprehended the accused.
Earlier in April, the spokesperson for Frontier Corps had claimed that thealleged mastermind behind the attack on Quaid-e-Azam’s Ziarat residency was killed in a targeted raid carried out by the FC personnel in the Mach area of Balochistan’s Bolan district.
Militants had carried out a symbolic and audacious attack on Pakistan, its history and the federal structure when they blew up the Ziarat residency, the building in which the Quaid-i-Azam spent the last days of his life in 1948. The Balochistan Liberation Army had claimed responsibility for the strike.
The residency was later rebuild and brought back to its original glory by the government and was theninaugurated on August 14, 2014.
