Peshawar-Addressing a press conference on Wednesday, Advisor for Information for the Area Development Secretariat (ADS) in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Mahmood Jan alongside Additional Inspector General Syed Abbas Ahsan revealed that the security forces had arrested an Afghan terrorist who was planning terrorist activities. Jan said that Pakistan has long maintained that Afghan territory is being used to carry out terrorist activities against it: “Evidence of this has emerged from time to time, and Pakistan has consistently presented its case and the available evidence before the international community.” He said that another major success had been achieved: “This is not an isolated terrorist. It is part of an entire chain that seems to have no end. These people take advantage of the cover of darkness to enter Pakistani territory and attempt to carry out attacks here. However, they do not realise that Pakistan’s sons are always ready to confront them on their soil.” According to the additional IG Ahsan, the suspect travelled through the Tirah Valley before being apprehended at a location near Peshawar. He allegedly planned terrorist activities on Pakistani soil. Abbas said the arrest was an important breakthrough, adding that interrogation had helped investigators identify the suspect’s facilitators in Pakistan and Afghanistan, as well as establish details of his training and alleged involvement in militant activities.
