Suspect involved in death threats calls to officials arrested
The suspect works as a constable at the Vehari Police Patrol.
Interior ministry officials were reported to have received threats through calls and messages from an unidentified number after the Rawalpindi and Karachi blasts that took place on November 21.
Interior Minister Rehman Malik had revealed during a press conference that he and his officers received death threats through text messages. He had told the media that security officials have traced the sender.
The government has increased security across Pakistan since Muharram began.
Malik had ordered bans on riding motorcycles, pillion riding and cellular services in different parts of the country.

why taliban spokesman is never traced....if we can trace this man so quickly......
Could it be mobile sniffing?
With government credibility at below zero, its hard to know whats right or wrong.
So why can't they trace threats to journalists? Is it just me or does someone else smell a conspiracy too?
@Mohammad Ali Siddiqui: Fall guy?
Hand this apology for a human exemplary punishment to discourage all such actions in future
It is very amazing that an ordinary Police Constable at Vehari Police Patrol had access to the Federal Minister of Interior and his Staff Member's cell phone numbers.
Didn't the Constable knew that all cellular phone companies maintain a data of all incoming and outgoing calls as well as of the text messages sent from one cellular phone to another.
This chap must also be having access to the cell phone numbers of other high profile government servants.
