PESHAWAR: The Peshawar police has foiled a massive terrorist act on Tuesday when it arrested a thirteen year old boy along with his operator and the bomb-disposal squad successfully diffused an explosive vest strapped around the teenager, reportedly trying to explode it at a fuel station, DawnNews reported.

Qazi blames American agent for attack
From the Newspaper | Fauzee Khan Mohmand | 16 hours ago
GHALANAI, Nov 19: Terming suicide attack on his convoy in Mohmand Agency an act of American agent, Jamaat-i-Islami former chief Qazi Hussian Ahmad has said that his party will continue political activities in tribal areas to frustrate nefarious designs of enemies.
Addressing a public gathering at Khapakh locality in Heleemzai tehsil on Monday, he said that the US and its allies wanted to create law and order situation in the tribal areas to prolong their presence in the region.
He alleged that the US and other anti-Islam forces had formed a network of their agents in the tribal areas to harm interests of Pakistan and pit tribal people against each other.
On the occasion, the office of Jamaat-i-Islami in Mohmand Agency was inaugurated and name of new chief of the party in the tribal region was announced.
Qazi Hussain addressed the public meeting despite a suicide attack on his convoy. He said that through such cowardly acts they couldnt be stopped from running their campaign. He said that they would expose America to Pakistani nation as well as the whole world.
This is my third visit within a year to Mohmand tribal region. It shows the interest being taken by my party in the backward area, the former chief of Jamaat-i-Islami said.
He also criticised the government for its pro-America policies. He said that people were the ultimate sufferers of the so-called war against terrorism. He said that the prevailing crises would continue if the government didnt sever ties with America and come out of the war against terrorism.
Qazi Hussain said that the worsening law and order was badly affecting economy of the country. He said that the US considered itself champion of human rights bit it was openly supporting Israeli air strikes against the innocent Palestinians.
The JI leader said that Israel and India were enemies of Pakistan. It is the need of the hour to review our foreign policy, he said. He urged Muslims to forge unity to foil conspiracies being hatched against them by Israel and its mentors.
JI Fata chief Haroon Rashid, Mohmand former chief Saeed Khan, Dr Munsif Khan and new chief of JI in Mohmand Qari Fazle Subhan also addressed the gathering.

JI loses ex-student leader to N. Waziristan drone strike | DAWN.COM
PESHAWAR, Aug 24: Jamaat-i-Islami has perhaps suffered the first drone casualty as its former student leader was killed in the US pilotless aircraft attack along with his wife near Miramshah town in North Waziristan Agency last Monday (August 20).
JI chief in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and former Senator Professor Mohammad Ibrahim Khan confirmed Raja Ahsan Aziz and his familys association with the party but didnt provide details.
Raja Ahsan had been with mujahideen (holy worriers) in North Waziristan Agency since long. I dont know more about his background, he said.
Sources close to Raja said he had been associated with the Taliban since 2002.
Former JI chief Qazi Hussain Ahmad and other leaders of the party on Thursday rushed to Azad Kashmir and attended Rajas funeral prayers in absentia.
According to locals, Raja was killed after a CIA-operated drone fired missiles on a house in Shna Khwara area on Miramshah-Datakhel Road on August 20. They said the house was constructed in a forest covered area adjacent to a seminary.
Raja, his wife and four people died and four suffered injures in the strike.
According to reports, Raja belonged to Mirpur in Azad Kashmir and had been living with family in North Waziristan since long.
By profession, he was engineer and completed his graduation from Mirpur Engineering University in 1996. He had served as nazim (head) of Islami Jamiat Talba, student wing of JI in Azad Jammu and Kashmir, between 1993 and 1995.
He later became member of the IJT shura (council). His father, Abdul Aziz, who had served in Pakistan Navy, was also elected president of JI, Mirpur district.
In the past, key Al Qaeda figures were arrested at the houses of the people, who were or remained active activists of JI or its affiliated bodies.
According to reports, Al Qaeda top leader Khalid Sheikh Mohammad was arrested at the house of former JI leader Farzana Qudoos in Rawalpindi, while two Al Qaeda suspects were taken into custody during a raid on the house of JI leader in Karachi.
Qazi Hussain insisted that Raja was not member of the party though his father, Abdul Aziz, and other family members were its very active workers.
Raja remained in Islami Jamiat Talba long before, but presently he had no association with the party, he said.
The former JI chief said his party considered all those killed by drones martyrs. He said it was the states responsibility to stop foreign aggression and provide protection to its people.
When asked what Raja was doing in North Waziristan Agency when he belonged to Azad Jammu and Kashmir, he replied: I dont want to go into this debate.
However, a security analyst, who wished not to be named, said the JI-affiliated groups had sufficient presence in tribal areas, where they were playing a very active role.
He said the party disassociated itself from activists taking part in cross-border insurgency in order to avoid criticism or dispel the impression of its direct ties with such organisations.
