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 Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) rejected on March 6 media reports that it was involved in an attack on a visiting Sri Lanka cricket squad in Lahore, Daily Times reported. “These media reports are false ... and baseless,” said LeT spokesman Abdullah Ghaznavi. “The attack on Sri Lanka’s team was an attack on Pakistan’s sovereignty and Kashmiris could never even think of that,” said Ghaznavi. “The attack is the handiwork of Indian agencies to defame Pakistan and bring instability to the country,” claimed Ghaznavi.

A review board of the Lahore High Court (LHC) on March 9 extended the detention of the chief of the Jama’at-ud-Da’awa (the Lashkar-e-Toiba [LeT] front), Hafiz Mohammed Saeed, and three other of its top leaders for 60 days while releasing two leaders, The News reported. The board, comprising Justice Mian Najam-uz-Zaman, Justice Fazal-e-Miran Chauhan and Justice Syed Shabbar Raza Rizvi, issued this order after the Home Department produced sufficient evidence against Hafiz Saeed and his associates and sought extension in their detention. The detention of Ameer Hamza, Col (retd) Nazir Ahmed, and Mufti Abdur Rehman Rehmani, has also been extended for 60 days. The board observed that the data produced before the board was sufficient for extending the period of their detention. The board further ordered the Punjab Government to provide subsistence allowance of PKR 25,000 to the families of the detenus while they would be kept at various places already declared sub-jails. In the cases of Qazi Kashif Niaz and Qari Yasin Baloch, the board opined there was no cogent evidence/material produced by the Home Department to justify extension in their detention. Under Article 10(4) of the Constitution, the chief justice of the High Court concerned would appoint a review board consisting of a chairman and two other persons, each of whom is or has been a judge of the High Court. The detention period of all detenus was to expire on March 9 midnight. In December 2008, the Interior Ministry had ordered detention of eight LeT leaders, including Hafiz Saeed, on suspicion of involvement in the Mumbai terrorist attacks in November 2008.

At least 14 people were killed and 17 injured on March 16 when a suicide bomber blew himself up near a busy bus stand at Pirwadhai in Rawalpindi, Daily Times reported. Sources quoting investigators said the original target of the bomber could have been the participants of the ‘long march’, of the former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif which was scheduled to pass through the area. Regional Police Officer Nasir Durrani, however, told the media that it would be premature to decide whether the bomber’s original target was the ‘long march’. "The suicide bomber blew himself up on a motorbike outside a restaurant, which was set up close to the cab stand," said Durrani.

The intelligence agencies probing the March 3 attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore have named the banned Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) as the group behind the incident, The News reported.

Eight Police recruits and a civilian were killed when a group of 10 terrorists attacked the Police Training Centre in Manawan near Lahore with guns and grenades on March 30, Daily Times reported. Security Forces regained control of the facility in an operation that lasted for more than eight hours. About 93 cadets and civilians were injured. One of the attackers was arrested, another was able to flee after being hit by a bullet and three blew themselves up to avoid arrest, Punjab Police Inspector General Khawaja Khalid Farooq said. He believed the other attackers might have fled unhurt in the densely populated neighbourhood. The attackers, some of who were dressed in Police uniforms, scaled the four feet high boundary wall of the Police academy at about 7:15am (PST) when hundreds of Police recruits were carrying out morning drills. They threw three or four grenades at the trainees and subsequently began to fire indiscriminately. There were about 1,000 Police personnel in the facility at the time of the attack. The gunmen reportedly took positions on the second and third floor of the three-storey residential barracks. Contingents of Pakistan Army and Rangers arrived at the incident site at about 9am. Around 100 troops stormed into the premises in armoured vehicles and four helicopters hovered overhead. Meanwhile, Police arrested a suspect, identified as Imran Hussain, with a pistol and two magazines from outside the premises. One of attackers identified as Hijratullah was arrested with a hand grenade, a dagger, a wireless phone and an Afghan passport. Investigators privy to the initial questioning said he was a resident of the Afghan province of Paktika and had been trained in Jalalabad. Security Forces also announced through the local mosque that a wounded terrorist had fled.

The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan chief Baitullah Mehsud on March 31 claimed responsibility for a series of recent terrorist attacks, including the March 30 assault on a police training centre in Lahore, The News reported. He also threatened to show his power to the world when his people would attack the US capital as a reaction to frequent drone attacks in the tribal areas and the reward on his head. “By the grace of Allah Almighty, I am claiming responsibility for the attack on the police training school in Lahore with eagerness, honour and love and will continue similar strikes across the country, if the US drones were not stopped from killing innocent people in the tribal areas,” Baitullah Mehsud said in his telephonic conversation with reporters. Baitullah also claimed responsibility for two other suicide attacks, including one on a military convoy near Bannu in the NWFP on March 30 and another on the Police intelligence office in Islamabad on March 23. Baitullah said his men were out to target Government installations against its failure to protect tribesmen against non-stop drone attacks. About the recent reward of $5 million for his head by the US State Department, he said he loved to be martyred, but threatened his men would soon attack Americans in their own country, not in Afghanistan. He said his men would soon teach a lesson to the Americans in Washington and the White House. An Associated Press report added that Baitullah said his group was planning a terrorist attack on the White House that would “amaze” the world. “Soon we will launch an attack in Washington that will amaze everyone in the world,” said Mehsud. In his latest comments in an interview with local Dewa Radio, a copy of which was obtained by the AP, Mehsud identified the White House as one of the targets In Washington.
