Federal Minister for Interior Rehman Malik on February 3 stressed the need for improving law to control activities of banned organisations, reported Daily Times. Malik told the National Assembly that the delay in approval of an amendment to the Anti-Terrorism Act was the main reason behind banned outfits’ holding rallies across the country. Malik said that revamping of laws was the solution but an amendment bill had been lying with the Senate standing committee for the past two years. Further, Malik apprised the Senate that the January 31, 2011 murder was a conspiracy against the country, reported Dawn. Replying to various points of order, Malik said it was not an ordinary incident and the conspirators would not be spared. “Whenever we head towards positive development in Balochistan such things start happening,” he said and added that it was an attempt to disrupt peace in the province.

Two Afghan officials on February 10 said that Pakistan had arrested two suspects from Quetta, the provincial capital of Balochistan, in connection with the September 20, 2011 assassination of former Afghan President and head of the Government-appointed Peace Council, Burhanuddin Rabbani, who was trying to broker a peace deal with the Afghan Taliban, reported Daily Times. However, the Police chief in Quetta and the spokesman for the Frontier Corps (FC) said they had not heard of the alleged arrests. A special commission that Afghan President Hamid Karzai appointed to investigate Rabbani’s death concluded that the attack was planned in Quetta and that the primary assailant was a Pakistani citizen. The commission gave Pakistani authorities the names, addresses and phone numbers of people in Pakistan suspected of being involved in plotting the assassination. One of the two Afghan officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive case, said two individuals were arrested in Quetta last week.
