Law enforcement agencies in Karachi have successfully apprehended a commander of the banned Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), who was reportedly involved in burying 16 individuals in a mass grave after they failed to pay a ransom. The arrest marks a significant achievement in counter-terrorism efforts within the region.

During a detailed press briefing, DIG of the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD), Asif Ejaz, explained that the arrested individual, identified as Shoaib from Datta Khel, had been actively trying to organize a group in Karachi. His plans included orchestrating an attack on the Muharram procession in Orangi Town, indicating a targeted strategy to incite violence during a sensitive communal observance.

The DIG outlined that the planned attack involved using grenades and bombs to disrupt the religious procession. In the course of the arrest, law enforcement officials recovered materials used for making suicide jackets and other explosive substances, indicating the preparation level of the arrested individuals.

Highlighting the broader security implications, DIG Ejaz pointed out that although the threats were general, the potential for a bombing could have led to widespread fear and chaos, underscoring the importance of timely intervention by security forces.

Further developments in the case were shared by Khurram Waris, the CTD’s Investigation In-Charge. He noted that the operation is ongoing, with efforts being made to locate and apprehend Shoaib’s accomplices. He also mentioned that the government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa had previously offered a reward of two million for information leading to the capture of this terrorist, responsible for the ruthless killing and burial of 16 people over ransom demands.
