'Al Qaeda plot to assassinate Musharraf foiled'
Karachi, Dec 12 - Pakistan intelligence agencies Wednesday claimed to have
foiled an Al Qaeda plot to assassinate President Pervez Musharraf and have
arrested some activists of the global terrorist network.
According to sources, the intelligence agencies on a tip-off raided a
militant hideout in Malir area of Karachi and arrested members of the Al
Qaeda, Online news agency said.
A huge cache of ammunition and weapons was claimed to have been recovered
from the arrested terrorists, the news agency reported.
Sources said that the terrorists during their interrogation revealed that
they were plotting to kill Musharraf during his next visit to Karachi.
They confessed that they were planning to blow up the entire bridge on Drig
Road at the precise moment when Musharraf's convoy was to reach there while
coming from Karachi airport to Shahrah-e-Faisal.
The arrested militants revealed that their group was also planning to target
army installations and foreign embassies and kidnap influential
personalities to press their demand for releasing their jailed accomplices.
The revelations have forced the security agencies to tighten security around
sensitive buildings and of VIPs, according to the news agency.
