DG Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) Lt-Gen Asim Bajwa has publicly confirmed that at least five facilitators involved in the daylight terrorist attack on Bacha Khan University in Charsadda town of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa were arrested.
Asim Bajwa in press conference said “We killed four attacks and apprehended their five facilitators and raids are being conducted to arrest another facilitator, his wife and niece,”
“Four terrorists, Ali, Usman, Umar and Abid, who were trained in Afghanistan, crossed into Pakistan from Torkham Border Crossing like ordinary travelers and used public transport to reach Mardan,” Bajwa said.
“One facilitator, Terrorist A, who is yet to be apprehended, took the terrorists to Mardan, where they were received and sheltered by Adil and Riaz.
“Adil Ustad is a carpenter, who also worked in the university as laborer. He drew the map of university and remained involved in planning the attack.” “Noorullah, who bought an auto rickshaw, transported terrorists to sugarcane fields near Bacha Khan University in Charsadda.”
Bajwa said that weapons used by the terrorists were from bought from Darra Adam Khel.
“Adil and Riaz helped them (terrorists) buy weapons. Adil’s wife and niece were used to carry weapons. They hid weapons in their burqas at checkposts.”
He said that Umar, the main commander, who was in Afghanistan, called a Pakistani reporter during the attack. The phone call was also played before media.
The DG ISPR called upon the nation to play its role to help eliminate terrorism from the country.
“Every individual has to play a role to prevent terrorism. Facilitators are living our society. We need to be aware of our surrounding as terrorists are hitting soft targets,” he said.
“Even in a developed country, these are security challenges. But societies and people play their part to confront them,” he said, referring to recent attacks in the West.
“We have to defeat their (militants) designs,” he added.
To a question, he said that Pakistan never blamed the Afghanistan government for the carnage. “We have clear evidence to establish that the terrorist attack was orchestrated in Afghanistan,” he added
