The recent operation against suspected members of Al-Qaeda was based on a credible information from intelligence agencies and the Punjab police.

Governor Khalid Maqbool told newsmen here on Tuesday at the Alhamra after inaugurating the 17th national exhibition arranged by the Artists Association of Punjab.

All the arrested suspects were being interrogated to establish if members of the Al-Qaeda were trying to regroup in the Punjab, and if so, what measures could be taken to preempt the possibility, he said.

Talking about the presence of the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) people during the raids and whether it diluted sovereignty of Pakistan, the governor claimed that traditional concept of the term had changed; humanity was dealing with problems that transcend national boundaries. In this inter-dependent world, information has to be shared about problems that were of international nature. Terrorism was one such problem. Sharing information about it and acting jointly to check it did not, in any way, affect national sovereignty, Mr Maqbool added.
