Responding to a call attention notice in the National Assembly Tuesday, Warraich said that the terrorists who were defeated in Swat are taking shelter in Karachi and were not perpetrating nefarious activities.
The minister for state said that the law enforcement agencies including police are responding to the situation and playing their due role.
Warraich added that strict action has been taken against persons involved in illegal supply of explosives in the provincial megalopolis. He added that as many as 61 people were arrested last year and 31 already put behind bars since January, 2013 in Karachi. Authorities had also recovered huge caches of arms and ammunition along with 209 kilogram of explosives last year.

Sharing further details, Warraich said that in the month of January around 33 cases of explosives were filed and over 30 persons were arrested.

Point the missiles which you have been testing in the direction of the foreign hands who are behind this carnage. We are spending billions in defence and complain of foreign hands? Who are these foreign hands? Are we so weak that we cannot stop this bloodshed. Stop making excuses and show some resolve and wipe this menace out once and for all. We are not paying taxes to hear excuses
its India according chuck hagel and we know it too. but what have we done about it. India is doing it what a enemy does , Two nation theory was so true.
OH NO, look, it's a bird, it's a plane, it's THE FOREIGN HAND!!!! Coming to a cinema near you this spring, (if the usual suspects haven't burnt it down)!!!
@Something Clever: The IM of state speaks his boss's language who has such a investigative mind which is even brilliant than Sherlock Holmes. What he means by foreign hands include aliens as well who were also behind Mehran base attack.
If you can say it's foreign hands, you have to know who those hands belong to. So out with it. You don't mind naming the US, India or Israel so its not them. So? Who?
Are they considering MQM as a foreign hand?
