The Department of the Fight against Terrorism (CTD) arrested four alleged facilitators of the March 11 terrorist attack against the Jaffar Express near the Bolan Du Baloutchistan district, sources during the claimed case on Tuesday.
Investigations on the terrorist attack on the passenger train have been underway, said CTD sources, adding that they, as well as other agencies, worked to trace and identify the people involved in the attack.
Weapons and other communication devices recovered from killed terrorists were sent for a forensic analysis, added the sources.
The Liberation Army of Baloch Prohibited (Bla), during the attack on the Jaffar Express, exploded the railways and maintained more than 440 hostage passengers in a confrontation of a day with security forces near a remote mountain pass in the Bolan district.
The army, after cleaning the train and saved hostages, said that he had killed 33 attackers. Before the start of the operation, the terrorists had martyred 26 passengers, while four security staff were martyred during the operation.
Addressing a press conference on March 14, the director general of inter-service public relations (DG ISPR), Lieutenant-General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, described India the main sponsor of terrorism in Baloutchistan, saying that the last attack on Jaffar Express was the continuation of the same policy.
Addressing a flanked press conference of the chief Minister of Balutchistan, Sarfraz Bugti, the CEO ISPR said: “The last attack in Balutchistan and other terrorist incidents that have taken place in the past … We understand that the main sponsor of these (attacks) is your oriental neighbor.”
Lieutenant-General Chaudhry confirmed that three FC soldiers kissed the martyrdom when the terrorists attacked the front border strike before the train was caught.
By giving a ventilation of the victims of the incident, the CEO ISPR revealed that 26 martyred train passengers included 18 members of the staff of the army and the FC, three officials of the Pakistani railways and other departments and five civilians.
The military spokesman said they had made five operations victims.
The CEO ISPR said the terrorists stopped the Jaffar Express via an IED explosion on a hilly ground where accessibility is difficult.
Lieutenant-General Chaudhry said that Jaffar Express’s incident is a continuity of India policy aimed at sponsoring terrorism in Pakistan.
“The incident of Jaffar Express is the continuity of the same policy, the same sponsorship from which it was designed and it was pushed.”, He noted.
Slamant Indian media, the CEO ISPR said that false videos had been created using artificial intelligence (AI) to spread malicious propaganda concerning Jaffar Express attack on social media platforms.
“Indian media distribute propaganda using false videos to exaggerate the situation,” he said.
“India Media tried to create a story (against Pakistan) by broadcasting false videos,” he said, adding that the Indian media also played the old videos of the terrorists drawn from social media.
