They have been charged with murder and terrorism.
The FIR has been lodged in PIB Colony police station and investigation is still in its early stages.
Chaudhry Aslam was killed in a bomb blast on Thursday and shortly afterwards the TTP claimed responsibility for it. Three other police officers also died in the attack.
Earlier, it was reported that an FIR was filed against "unidentified people" under the Anti-Terrorism Act.
Background
Earlier on Saturday, it was reported that the suspected suicide bomber, who allegedly rammed an explosives-laden vehicle into slain Aslam’s Vigo, has been identified as Naeemullah, the son of a prayer leader.
Some body parts allegedly of a suspected attacker were found at the bomb site on Friday and sent to the National Database and Registration Authority for identification.
“[We are] 98% sure that a suicide bomber hit the explosives-laden Suzuki cargo van with Aslam’s Vigo,” Crime Investigation Department (CID) DIG Zafar Bukhari told The Express Tribune.
Police officials earlier also insisted that the investigation is only in its initial stages and things could change.

@Mirza: They are laughing alright! But not because of their safe heavens, instead at our confusion and disarray as a nation about: "Who to protect and who to let die" from Pak Army cadets to JI's TP friends, to innocent shoppers, students, shriners, religious minorities, music lovers, polio workers, border guards and security personnel. The TTP is shocked and laughing at our high tolerance for all the above murders & killings of fellow citizens plus high profile bank & jewelry store robberies and for murder or for ransom kidnapping. that's what they are laughing about in reality! Who are we by the way? Are we a nation or a bunch of poor at the mercy of cut throats?
Fir has been registered against Taliban as if all Taliban would be arrested after the Fir. It's all a farce. If I may use my limited urdu. All is Topi drama.
These terrorist leaders must be laughing at us in their safe havens. As long as they have these safe havens nobody can do anything to our strategic assets. How can we take any action against these people when our ruling parties want to negotiate with them? How can we arrest them or try in our courts when we show outrage when any one of them is killed by drone?
@Bitter Truth;: They were all killed in Pakistan by the Pakistani.No conspiracy theory, please
TTP was unfortunately allowed to enter the bloodstream of Karachi and those who talked about talibanization of Karachi were ridiculed and rejected as usual, Karachites left high and dry as usual
The dignity-less lion of Punjab should be on notice. Mr.Khan, the Sharamnak, plus the Bearded One should be on notice.
Now how will Imran Khan negotiate with the Taliban?
-What about Quaid-e-Azam M. Ali Janah muder? -What about Liaqat Ali Khan killing? What about Bhutto extra judicial killing? -What about General Zia-ul-Haq Killing? -What about the killing of Pakistan and its National integrity and ideology?????????
What about Gen Niazi assassination.
Must ask JI to produce their "Friends" or else! By the way; What was Jamaat's condolence line?
If there is any dignity left in our political elites they must immediately announce grand operation against every person who incites hatred in the name of religion and that include urban as well as rural fatwa baaz mullah of any rank.NS should think for nation not for ghairat brigades who are the real problem.We are standing on our tows waiting for very bold decisions from pmln.It must act now are be ready to face her political downfall for good.
Have PTI and JI been added as collaborators and facilitators in the FIR ?
They should be nominated in every terrorist attack especially when they claim the resposibility and those who give excuses on their behalf should be nominated as abetters!
Can federal government now carry out the arrest?
