Jihad will be mandatory for the Pakistani nation in case India attacks the country, a joint communiqué issued in an All Parties’ Conference said on January 5, according to Daily Times. The conference, held at Jamia Naeemia in Lahore, was attended by a number of noted religious scholars and heads of various religious and political parties, including the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz, the Tehreek-e-Insaaf, the Sunni Tehrik, the Mustafai Tehrik, the Jamiat Ulema-e-Pakistan, the Minhajul Quran, the Nizam-e-Mustafa Party and the Jamaat Ahle Sunnat. The participants demanded the Government immediately convene an emergency session of the Organisation of Islamic Conference (OIC). The participants also demanded the OIC issue a declaration condemning India and expressing solidarity with the people of Palestine. Chairing the meeting, Federal Minister for Zakat and Ushr Pir Nurul Haq Qadri said the two major political parties of the country should not create difficulties for each other, as that would worsen Pakistan’s current crises.

Police claimed at least 12 terrorists, who appeared to be highly trained and used rocket launchers, hand-grenades and sophisticated automatic guns in the operation lasting about 30 minutes, were involved in the attack. The attackers subsequently escaped from the incident site after commandeering a car and rickshaw. Police found a large quantity of hand-grenades, rocket launchers, suicide jackets, plastic explosives, time devices, Kalashnikov rifles, pistols and walkie-talkies left at different places in a radius of a few furlongs by the attackers. Police also seized three hand-grenades, a time device and a Kalashnikov from the backyard of the house of a retired army officer and several other weapons from near the Alfatah Departmental Store in Makka Colony and other adjacent places. They also seized a car parked near the Liberty Park with a huge-quantity of grenades and Kalashnikovs.

Sri Lanka canceled the tour immediately after the attack and sent a special plane to escort its team back home later in the day. Governor of Punjab Salmaan Taseer termed the incident a planned attack and said it seemed to have followed the Mumbai attacks pattern, adding the attackers were not ordinary people, but highly trained. Capital City Police Officer Haji Habibur Rehman said the identity of the suspects was yet to be ascertained and an investigation had been launched to track them. Police also claimed they had detained a rickshaw driver from the Cantonment area whose three-wheeler had been used by two gunmen to escape from the scene. A senior police officer said they had detained five people for questioning, according to Daily Times.

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.

The Government of Punjab on July 14 disassociated itself from a case challenging the Lahore High Court order that released the Jama’at-ud-Da’awa (the Lashkar-e-Toiba [LeT] front) chief Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, as it filed an application with the Supreme Court (SC) to withdraw its petition that challenged the release, Daily Times reported. Appearing on notice, the Punjab Advocate General (AG) Raza Farooq informed the SC that the Punjab Government had decided to withdraw its petition against Saeed’s release, as it had insufficient evidence against him and his aide, Col (r) Nazir Ahmed. Appearing on the behalf of the federal Government, Deputy AG Shah Khawar requested the court for additional time to seek the Centre’s instructions on the issue. Accepting the request, the court reportedly adjourned the hearing until July 16.

The US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has said that the US does not have any evidence of India's involvement in Balochistan amid Pakistan's allegation that New Delhi was fomenting trouble in the province, Rediff reported. "Well, first of all, we have no evidence of that. I mean, we just have no evidence of that," Clinton said in reply to a question that many Pakistanis believe that India is fomenting trouble in Balochistan.
