The Karachi Police arrested 10 members of a militant organisation linked to the Taliban who were planning massive terrorist attacks in the city during the elections, a senior police official said on February 15, according to Dawn. Addressing a press conference, the Inspector General of Police Azhar Ali Farooqi said the militant outfit, Tehrik-i-Islami Lashkar-i-Muhammadi, had ties with Mullah Dadullah, Taliban commander Tahir and Sirajul Haq Haqqani. A large quantity of explosives was seized from their possession. He said the group was planning attacks on political and religious leaders and philanthropists, adding that it had also obtained lists of members of the Rotary and Lions clubs and Theosophical Society. "They had plans to sabotage the election process. The city and the province as a whole have been saved from a major disaster," Farooqi said. According to a press release issued by the Sindh Police, a warning letter by the group addressed to military institutions, intelligence agencies and police read: "You people have become part of the conspiracies hatched by the infidels. You have lost the difference between friends and foes and you are fighting against your fellow countrymen and the Mujahideen. Now you have two options before you - become protectors of Islam and the country and turn against those who order you to act against the fellow countrymen." Farooqi disclosed that the arrested men were formerly members of other banned outfits, like the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Harkat-ul-Mujahideen (HuM), but after the Lal Masjid operation they formed a group of their own because their former organisations had ‘deviated’ from their mission.
