KARACHI: Special Investigation Unit (SIU) of Karachi Police Department and Citizen-Police Liason Committee in a joint action Saturday copped a Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) commander and two of his henchmen, Geo News reported.
“The militants were arrested during a raid on a house in Gulshan-e-Iqbal Colony”, said SSP (SIU), Farooq Awaan said talking to media men here at his office.
The action was taken following credible intelligence that terrorists were holed up in a building in the said area, said he.

“We have recovered Jihadi literature, stack of TTP letterhead pads, and weapons in the raid”, Awan said.
