Cantt SP Kashif Zulfiqar said the Baitul Mukaram mosque in Tehkal Bala area was mostly visited by the Ahle Hadith sect and was operated by the JuD. One of the leading figures of the banned outfit was on a visit to the mosque, he told The Express Tribune.
He said the arrested suspected attacker was injured in ‘friendly fire’.
