An investigation team on February 7 arrested two more suspects, Hasnain and Rifaqat, from Rawalpindi for their alleged involvement in the assassination of former Prime Minister and Pakistan People’s Party chairwoman Benazir Bhutto, Daily Times reported. City Police Officer Saud Aziz said the police were interrogating the suspects. "These are important arrests. Investigations are under way," Interior Ministry spokesman Javed Iqbal Cheema told Reuters. An unnamed senior security official told AFP that the two men arrested had ties with Taliban commander Baitullah Mehsud. "It is a major breakthrough. These two men were involved in the assassination and they are from a militant group which is relatively new," the official said, adding, "Their tentacles are from the tribal region and Baitullah Mehsud."

The military said on February 26 that the killing of the army’s surgeon general and seven other persons in a suicide bombing a day earlier was likely in retaliation to operations against militants near the Afghan border, according to Daily Times. "I think apparently it is in response and reaction to the Pakistan Army’s operations against militants in South Waziristan and other places in FATA," military spokesman Major General Athar Abbas told AFP. Exact details would be known once the probe into the incident was over, he added. A number of people suspected to have links with the suicide attack have been arrested, according to interior ministry spokesman Brig Javed Iqbal Cheema, Dawn reported. "Investigators have found important leads to the Rawalpindi blast and the arrested men are being interrogated. But at this stage we cannot make them public," he said in Islamabad on February 26.

Police in Rawalpindi on June 5-night foiled a major terror plot, seizing explosives-packed vehicles and arresting four suspected terrorists. Police sources told Daily Times on June 6 that the police had seized 1000-kilograms of explosives along with bullets, ball bearings, metal scraps and broken pieces of mirror, adding, religious literature was also seized from the suspected terrorists. They said that the terrorists had been captured after a massive sweep of the city was launched on intelligence reports that three explosives-packed vehicles had entered the city to target sensitive locations. Security forces placed Rawalpindi and Islamabad on red alert following the discovery of the explosives, AFP reported. City Police Officer Rao Muhammad Iqbal said: “It’s true that the city police have arrested four suspected terrorists and seized three explosives-packed vehicles from them. An investigation is underway, although it’s premature to presume anything at this stage.” He appealed to people to contact the police as soon as they saw any suspected vehicle or person. According to the sources, preliminary investigations have revealed that the suspected terrorists confessed that they were planning to target the President’s Camp Office and offices of several law-enforcement agencies.

Dawn reported that the Special Investigations branch of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) had arrested three alleged terrorists from Rawalpindi and recovered 250-kg explosives from their possession.

Two suicide bombers blew themselves up on August 21 at the gates of the Pakistan Ordnance Factories (POF) in the high security cantonment town of Wah in Rawalpindi District of Punjab, killing at least 70 persons in what was described as the deadliest attack on a military installation in the country’s history, Dawn reported. The Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan claimed responsibility for the attack. The POF at Wah is a cluster of about 20 industrial units producing artillery, tank and anti-aircraft ammunition for the Pakistani armed forces, according to Daily Times. It employs around 25,000 to 30,000 workers. The bombers blew themselves up outside two gates of the factory at 2.35pm (PST) when hundreds of workers were leaving after a shift change. Most of the victims were civilian workers. The first explosion occurred outside the main gate and it was followed by an equally powerful blast at gate No.1 located close to a busy market. Witnesses said the bombers were on foot and they exploded themselves within a minute of each other. The death toll could increase as 35 of the injured were in critical condition, hospital sources said. Security force personnel found a ‘suicide vest’ in the toilet of a nearby mosque and arrested a suspected suicide bomber, Hameedullah of Khyber Agency, from the Mall Road. According to sources, police arrested three suspects. One of them was said to be "covering up" the suicide bombers. A belt filled with explosives was also found in a mosque, the sources said. Taliban spokesman Maulvi Omar claimed responsibility of the suicide attacks saying that they had been carried out in retaliation for military operations in Bajaur and Swat. Talking to Dawn, he warned that such attacks would also be carried out in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Peshawar, Mardan, Bannu, Kohat and Swat.

Security agencies on December 25 foiled a plot to cause widespread destruction in Islamabad and Rawalpindi and recovered a huge quantity of explosive material with numerous detonating devices from a terrorist hideout in Karal near Islamabad, The News reported. However, Police failed to arrest the three miscreants who managed to escape during the raid. Later, the Police detained 10 people for interrogation and registered a case under the Explosives Act. The explosive material was stored in a house in Karal, a small village on the outskirts of the federal capital within the jurisdiction of the Islamabad Capital Territory. The Islamabad Police and intelligence agencies officials believe that the explosive material and detonators were meant to target various commercial centres and residential areas in the federal capital. According to Police sources, over 650 kilograms of explosive material, including 520 detonating devices (12 packs of two different kinds), 357 bricks of the Aemolite explosives, 20 bags of gun powder and three bags of sulphur powder, were recovered. Meanwhile, Superintendent of Police (East Zone), Saqib Sultan, who addressed a press conference at the Karal Police station, said that the masterminds who escaped were identified as Bacha Saeed Khan, Farid Khan and Musa Khan.
