KARACHI: A man believed to be Tehreek-i-Taliban Commander Mullah Usman Ghani was arrested in an early morning operation in Kunwari Colony on Thursday.
Ghani was caught with three of his accomplices, Mohammad Imran, Hazrat Khan and Noor Ali. Site SP Noor Jehan told The Express Tribune that it has yet to be determined whether the suspects, nabbed with a heavy cache of weapons, were “Taliban or zaliman (oppressors)”.
“But we are sure that the suspects are hardcore criminals who have been involved in a whole lot of illegal activities,” he said.
Counterterrorism officials have previously identified Kunwari Colony as a hotbed for the TTP in Karachi. However till the filing of this report, SP Shah Jehan had yet to lodge a FIR against the accused.

interrogate them, get the necessary info and hang them publicly now...we need to make an example out of these murderers...they are the same breed as Mumtaz Qadari...oh and did i mention that we should hang him too? of-course after his appeal is turned down and his death verdict is upheld (hopefully)! Stop Extremism and you'll save Pakistan
Commander? Must be from an invisible Al Qaeda Navy. No wonder they destroyed Orions.
Time for the Islamist courts to come to the rescue and release the TTP terrorists for the lack of proof. The game never stops.
