10 persons were killed and over 20 others injured as three unidentified terrorists opened fire on a group of approximately 40 persons offering prayers at the Shah Najaf Mosque in Khayaban-e-Sir Syed, Rawalpindi, on February 26. Media sources indicated that no group has thus far claimed responsibility for the suspected sectarian killing. No arrests have been made either in connection with the massacre. Meanwhile, while strongly condemning the massacre, President Pervez Musharraf has directed the Punjab and Federal governments to swiftly undertake a joint investigation and submit a report at the earliest. The President added that groups opposed to the government's policy of countering terrorism are "out to detract it from pursuing it vigorously…Those responsible would be unearthed and given exemplary punishment." Media reports have indicated that it was the first sectarian attack since the January 12-Presidential announcement of a crackdown on Islamist extremism and sectarianism. Separately, Interior Secretary Tasneem Noorani said the massacre was "a very reprehensible attack. This clearly appears to be a sectarian attack. It (sectarianism) has been curbed in the past, but to expect that everything will fall in line is expecting too much." Rawalpindi Range Deputy Inspector-General of Police Fareed Nawaz said the killing appeared to be sectarian motivated and was most probable that the killers had fled to neighbouring Islamabad.

As reported earlier, two armed men opened indiscriminate fire on Shiite worshippers at the mosque in the northern city of Rawalpindi, killing 11 persons and injuring 14 others. Asif Hayat indicated that LeJ terrorists who had returned from their safe havens in Afghanistan consequent to the fall of Taliban militia are likely to engage in terrorist activities in Pakistan.

Seven persons, including three children and two women were killed in an attack by a group of approximately 20 Hizbul Mujahideen (HM) terrorists at Dandli Dansal, about 22 kms from Arnas in Mahore tehsil of Udhampur on April 8. Six others were also injured in the incident. The terrorists reportedly first set 21 houses on fire after the Village Defence Committee (VDC) members resisted the terrorists’ massacre attempt for eight hours.
