The security agencies have arrested four members of MQM-London in Karachi.
They believe the suspects have been involved in target killings and have been in contact with the Indian intelligence agency. The suspects were identified as Adil Ansari, Shahid Muttahida, Majid and Siraj. “The suspects were continuously in contact with another suspect named Mahmood Siddique in India,” said the agencies.
Rocket launchers, submachine guns, explosives and ammunition were seized from them. A Joint Investigation Team has been formed to interrogate the suspects. Last month, police also claimed to have arrested two men hailing from Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM-London) for their alleged involvement in target killing incidents in the city.
According to police, a raid was carried out by Shahrah-e-Faisal police station team in Gulistan-e-Jauher area of the city to arrest Saeed Hashmi and Asad Raza for their alleged involvement in target killing incidents.
“They were wanted by the authorities in various incidents of terrorism and target killing,” they said.
