Pakistan police arrest son of retired brigadier, two others over attempted rocket attacks By MUNIR AHMAD Associated Press Writer ISLAMABAD, Pakistan Pakistani police said Tuesday they had arrested three suspects, including the son of a retired army brigadier, for attempted rocket attacks in and near the capital this month. The arrests were made Monday on information gleaned from eight Islamic militants who were already in police custody for their involvement in the three attempted rocket attacks, city police chief Iftikhar Chaudhry said. "They are the main suspects and are now being questioned," he said. Chaudhry didn't reveal the names of the suspects, but a senior security official identified the trio as Khalil Wayin_ the son of retired army brigadier Dural Rashid_ Ali Ahmad and Munir Ahmad. "These terrorists had links with an outlawed militant group, and had brought rockets from a tribal area," said the official on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media. Pakistan is a key ally of the United States in its war on terrorism. The latest arrests come more than one week after the country's Interior Minister Aftab Khan Sherpao said eight al-Qaida-linked militants had been captured for their involvement in the attempted rocket attacks. He said the suspects planted rockets on Oct. 4 in a park near the residence of President Gen. Pervez Musharraf in Rawalpindi, a garrison city near Islamabad, but only one fired and it landed inside the spacious park. No one was wounded in the attack. The suspects allegedly also tried to fire rockets again on Oct. 5 and Oct. 7 aimed at the Parliament building and the headquarters of Inter-Services Intelligence spy agency in Islamabad, but the rockets were spotted and defused. Sherpao said mobile phones that were meant to trigger the rockets helped authorities trace and arrest the first eight men. 061024 071303 Copyright 2006 Associated Press. All rights reserved.
