Probe in right direction, says Babar


The State Minister for home Lutfozzaman Babar yesterday said the investigation into the serial bomb blasts is progressing in the right direction.

He held a series of meetings with the high-ups of law enforcement agencies and intelligence officials and discussed about the progress of the blasts at his office.

Meanwhile, the Inspector General of Police (IGP) Abdul Qaiyyum, at a post meeting briefing, told journalists that they have received a lot of information from the arrestees.

"According to the statement of the arrestees, we have prepared a list of suspected persons linked with the August 17 bomb attacks," the IGP added.

"You will get good news of the arrest," he added.

He also held a meeting with the officials of Joint Interrogation Cell (JIC) and inquired about the progress of the interrogation.
