Police on Monday arrested six suspected militants, including the Pakistani aide of a Libyan al-Qaida operative accused of masterminding two assassination attempts a year ago against President Pervez Musharraf, an official said. Malik Tehsin, 31, was nabbed in Lahore as he travelled in a car with three other Pakistanis, and information from Tehsin led to the arrests of two other Pakistani men at a house in the city. Shafqaat Ahmed, a senior police superintendent, told a news conference that Tehsin had arranged accommodation, transportation and other facilities for Abu Faraj al-Libbi, a Libyan terror suspect, who is among the most wanted men in Pakistan. Al-Libbi is accused of organizing the two attempts to assassinate Musharraf in December 2003. The Pakistani leader was unharmed, but 17 people died in the second attempt to blow up his motorcade in Rawalpindi. Full Story
