Five explosions were reported from two theatres in Lahore in the night of January 9, according to The News. However, no casualty was reported. Four low-intensity bombs exploded in the main electricity supply control room of the Al-Falah Theatre at around 8:20 pm (PST) while a high-intensity bomb exploded at the Tamasil theatre at around 10:30 pm in Mozang Chungi. A suspect was arrested from the premises of Al-Falah, who was taken to the Civil Lines police station for interrogation. Police said nobody or group had claimed responsibility for the blasts. Various news agencies, however, reported that at least six people had been injured in as many explosions, Daily Times reported. CNN quoted Police as saying that the blasts at Al-Falah Theatre had been caused by grenades hurled by a would-be suicide bomber who later tried to blow himself up, but was arrested. Declining to name a group, the Deputy Inspector General of Police (Investigations), Mushtaq Sukhera, said people opposed to cultural activities carried out the attacks – “which can be considered part of a series starting from juice shops in Garhi Shahu and later targeting Alhamra Cultural Complex.” “The group believes that these places are centres of anti-Islamic activities and spread obscenity,” he said.

Eight Police recruits and a civilian were killed when a group of 10 terrorists attacked the Police Training Centre in Manawan near Lahore with guns and grenades on March 30, Daily Times reported. Security Forces regained control of the facility in an operation that lasted for more than eight hours. About 93 cadets and civilians were injured. One of the attackers was arrested, another was able to flee after being hit by a bullet and three blew themselves up to avoid arrest, Punjab Police Inspector General Khawaja Khalid Farooq said. He believed the other attackers might have fled unhurt in the densely populated neighbourhood. The attackers, some of who were dressed in Police uniforms, scaled the four feet high boundary wall of the Police academy at about 7:15am (PST) when hundreds of Police recruits were carrying out morning drills. They threw three or four grenades at the trainees and subsequently began to fire indiscriminately. There were about 1,000 Police personnel in the facility at the time of the attack. The gunmen reportedly took positions on the second and third floor of the three-storey residential barracks. Contingents of Pakistan Army and Rangers arrived at the incident site at about 9am. Around 100 troops stormed into the premises in armoured vehicles and four helicopters hovered overhead. Meanwhile, Police arrested a suspect, identified as Imran Hussain, with a pistol and two magazines from outside the premises. One of attackers identified as Hijratullah was arrested with a hand grenade, a dagger, a wireless phone and an Afghan passport. Investigators privy to the initial questioning said he was a resident of the Afghan province of Paktika and had been trained in Jalalabad. Security Forces also announced through the local mosque that a wounded terrorist had fled.

The Lahore Police on June 17 claimed the arrest of a terrorist involved in the attack on a visiting Sri Lankan cricket team on March 3, with officials claiming the attackers had plans to take the cricketers hostage to demand the release of jailed leaders of their group, Daily Times reported. The Capital City Police Officer (CCPO) Pervaiz Rathore told a press conference that the arrested man, identified as Zubair alias Naik Muhammad, who killed an unarmed traffic warden in the attack was a member of the Punjab Taliban, an offshoot of the banned Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) group. Seven people, including six Policemen, were killed when terrorists ambushed the Sri Lankan team while it was being driven to Gaddafi Stadium for a match. The CCPO said the terrorists had originally planned to take the Sri Lankan cricket team hostage until the release of some important leaders. The plan, however, changed when the terrorists were confronted by Policemen in the Liberty area, he added. While the other six terrorists had been identified – Muhammad Aqeel alias Dr Usman of Rawalpindi, Samiullah alias Ijaz, Adnan alias Sajjad, Ajmal alias Ehsan and Umer – the CCPO said they fled to Waziristan a few days after the attack. He said the terrorists arrived in Lahore a week ahead of the attacks and rented houses in various areas. Zubair – who appeared at the televised press conference with his head covered – said the mastermind of the attack took the others to a rented house located on a street in front of Mansoora a day before the assault, and gave them weapons.
