The role of ISI in this arrest...<<The ISI officials were the first to be wounded, because they were leading the operation from the front, said an official and added that an injured ISI colonel stayed on the scene for three hours after being hit by several shrapnel from the hand grenade. "Casualties from our side only occurred due to the surprise grenade attack," said a senior Karachi police official, who also confirmed that among the wounded security personnel were an colonel and a major of the country's military intelligence service, the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). This was the beginning of a firefight in which six al-Qaeda men armed with a pistol and an AK-47 assault rifle resisted about 200 Karachi policemen for three hours and surrendered only after a volley of teargas shells suffocated them to near death in their apartment. Senior police sources confirmed on Saturday that among the two al-Qaeda suspects who died in the gun battle was one Pakistani associate of the suspected terrorists. "The Pakistani was such a motivated extremist that he inscribed Allah o' Akbar with his blood on the wall before he died of bullet wounds on the chest and the neck," according to a police official who confessed that the scene disturbed him emotionally.>> from The News...
