26 persons, including a former member of the National Assembly (NA) were killed and 40 others injured when a suicide bomber blew himself up inside a mosque in Wana town of South Waziristan in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) at 3 pm (PST) on August 23, reports Daily Times. Pro-Government cleric Maulana Noor Muhammad was delivering a sermon in the area’s biggest mosque when the attack occurred. “Maulvi Noor Muhammad was among the 26 killed in the suicide attack inside his madrassa adjacent to his mosque,” Wana assistant political agent, Jamal Azmat said. No outfit has claimed responsibility for the attack so far. However, ‘foreign elements’ who were earlier forced out of the area are believed to be behind the attack. Maulana Noor Muhammad was opposed to the presence of Uzbek militants and had provided support to dislodge them. Slain Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) leader Baitullah Mehsud had allowed the “displaced Uzbek militants” to stay in Mehsud areas, which triggered a strong reaction from the tribesmen from the Ahmedzai Wazir areas. The former MNA had also played his role in brokering a peace deal in the past. The cleric was associated with the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (Fazlur Rehman fraction).

At least 25 persons were killed and over 100 others, including women and children, wounded in twin blasts in Karachi as the city marked Hazrat Imam Hussain’s chehlum (40the Day after death) ceremony on February 5, according to Daily Times. The sources said that the first explosion occurred at around 3:03pm (PST) in the Shahrah-e-Faisal area of Karachi targeting a bus taking 30-40 mourners to the city’s main chehlum procession at Nishtar Park, killing at least 13 people and injuring another 50. City Police chief Waseem Ahmad told the media while a motorbike fitted with an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) was used to carry out the attack, it was unclear if a bomber was riding the bike or it was parked and detonated when the bus passed by. The second explosion, which killed around 12 persons and wounded dozens of others, took place at around 4:55pm at Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre, where those injured or killed in the first explosion were being taken amid a crowd of victims’ relatives and the media. The blast at the medical centre targeted the building’s parking lot in front of the emergency ward. Several vehicles, including ambulances, were also damaged in the attack. Crime Investigation Department (CID) Senior Superintendent of Police (Operations) Fayyaz Khan said the latest attacks did not appear to have any link with another blast on December 28, 2009, which targeted Karachi’s main Muharram procession, as they were carried out using devices connected to cell phones and placed inside boxes positioned on bikes. BDS official Muneer Sheikh described the attacks as “suicide bombings”, and said a dead body found from the site of the first blast could be of the bomber. He said at least 15-20 kilogrammes of explosives were used in the first attack, while around 10 kilogrammes were used in the second. He said nuts, bolts and ball bearings were also found from the sites of the attack, and the “bombings appear similar to the Ashura attack”. The Federal Interior Minister Rehman Malik has described the attacks as incidents of “sectarian violence”. In addition, the National security institutions for probe into Karachi blasts said that there is similarity between the February 5’s twin blasts in Karachi and blast on M A Jinnah Road on Youm-e-Ashur on December 28, 2009. The accused used similar nut-bolts and other parts in the manufacturing of bombs used for these blasts, it said. According to Police sources, preliminary investigation showed that Korangi group of Jandullah is behind the Karachi blasts. Meanwhile, Jandullah sources strongly rejected its involvement in the blasts in Karachi and said that they were not behind these blasts.

At least 90 persons were killed when a suicide bomber detonated an explosives-laden pickup truck in the middle of a volleyball game in the Shah Hasan Khel village of Lakki Marwat District in the Bannu Division of the North West Frontier Province (NWFP) on January 1, according to Daily Times. Police said more than 60 persons are being treated at local hospitals. Local Police chief Ayub Khan told Reuters the bomber blew himself up in an SUV in the middle of the field and there was believed to be a second vehicle, which fled the scene. Khan said the bomber drove a vehicle loaded with around 250 kilogrammes of high-intensity explosives into the field, which lies in a congested neighbourhood. Some nearby houses collapsed and “we fear that some 10 or so people might have been trapped in the rubble.” Khan said that more than 20 houses, on both sides of the open ground where the match was being played, had collapsed. In addition, a group of local tribal elders was holding a meeting at a nearby mosque. The mosque was damaged and some people inside were killed, he added further. “Four paramilitary soldiers are also among the dead,” he informed. Another Police official said that some 300 people were on the field when the incident took place. A large number of them are said to have been elderly residents and children. Meanwhile, the NWFP Information Minister Mian Iftikhar Hussain said the death toll might rise further, adding, “The locality has been a hub of militants. Locals set up a Lashkar (tribal militia) and expelled the militants from this area. This attack seems to be a reaction to their expulsion.” Security Forces have cordoned off the village.

A US drone targeted Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) chief Hakeemullah Mehsud in South Waziristan Agency in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) on January 14, said Government officials and tribal sources, with security agencies waiting for confirmation if Hakeemullah is among the 10 militants killed in the strike, according to Daily Times. Hakeemullah recently claimed responsibility for a suicide attack on a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) base in Khost province of Afghanistan. “What is confirmed is that Hakeemullah was targeted ... but the strike took place in a remote area where communication lines are very poor ... we don’t have confirmation yet if he is dead,” the official sources said. However, the Associated Press (AP) quoted intelligence officials as saying that Hakeemullah was not among the victims. But Agence France-Presse (AFP) quoted a senior security official as saying, “We are receiving reports about his death, but we are not 100 percent sure.” “Local people are saying he was there at the time [of the strike],” Reuters quoted another senior security official as saying. Sources close to the political administration said the drone fired four missiles at a house in Shaktoee – a village in South Waziristan close to the border with North Waziristan. AP put the death toll at 12, while AFP said 15 Taliban militants had been killed. “Shaktoee has been a stronghold of the Taliban, and TTP chief Hakeemullah Mehsud is believed to have been staying in the region after the military retook lost ground from the group during Operation Rah-e-Nijat (path to salvation),” tribal sources said.

Six unidentified persons, who were killed in a bomb blast in the Baldia Town of Karachi in the morning of January 8, were identified as five militants and one civilian, according to Dawn. An initial investigation stated that six militants had come to the house at about 3 am (PST) on three motorcycles.

Five of the dead militants were identified as Riazul Hasan, Mohammad Husain, Shahbaz Lahori, Asif and Zahid. Ayaz was also killed in the blast, while his brother Ibrar was injured. A portion of a house was destroyed in what was described as an accidental blast. "We heard a loud bang at about 7:45am and saw two bodies lying in the debris. A Kalashnikov rifle was beside the bodies," a eyewitness said. Police found a cache of arms and ammunition and suicide vests strapped to the two bodies in the house. The suicide vests were fitted with grenades, they added. The suicide vest of the third militant accidentally triggered the explosion, causing a grenade to explode, investigators said. Police recovered several cartons of tinned food, jihadi literature, books and CDs, stickers of Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) and Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan (SSP) pasted inside a trunk containing certifications of graduation from a seminary, cell phones and several SIMs from the debris of the house.
