Law enforcement agencies have forwarded intelligence reports to the senior government officials regarding suicide attacks expected to be carried out by women bombers across the country, Interior Ministry sources told Daily Times on September 23.
“There are chances that male and female former students of Jamia Hafsa, Jamia Fareedia and Lal Masjid that managed to escape from ‘Operation Silence’ could carry out suicide attacks across the country,” the intelligence agencies’ reports said, according to sources. The report also suspected involvement of students from these madrassas (seminaries) in the suicide bombing on July 17 in Islamabad.
The police seniors across the country immediately issued instructions to keep a close eye on suspicious women wearing shuttlecock burqas and/or youngsters roaming near important installations, especially foreign ones, as well as important personalities, law enforcement personnel and important public and business places, sources said. Intelligence agencies said in the report that the Kernal Sher Khan Shaheed Stadium, at Khyber Road, in Peshawar, would be the likely target of such attacks, since there was a large number of rickshaws and public transport vehicles parked there most of the time.
