Word in the town: Terror Bid foiled in Islamabad?

[MastanKhan]

Sheikh Rasheed is wrong in the sense that india would do such an attack to move focus away from Panama and NS. An attack of this magnitude would take months of planning even a year or more. No way could india have known about Panama leaks a year ago. And no way could they plan it in spur of the moment type of thing. And to save who? Nawaz Shrief? What do they care about him that they'll set up such a big operation?

Hi,

Allow me to disagree-----. India already has its assets in pakistan---in different locations---waiting for signal to proceed for terrorist activities in pakistan.

The are already pre-positioned-----. But some may have been under the scope. India does not need 3 months to plan the strikes----for that reason.

You could be right. I'm not gonna argue that india doesn't have such capabilities inside Pakistan. I just think india doing all this to save NS is moot and pretty asinine.

Sir,

In the circles---I don't want to name---Nawaz is being seriously considered as an indian Plant. Supposedly---he sold out to india before the agitation that brought back Benazir and allowed Nawaz back into the country as well.

 

[shah1398]

does anyone have more detail?

planners have been nabbed who were in the final stages of launching a Mumbai style Hotel siege of Marriott and Serina Hotels in Islamabad.

does anyone Have more details beyond the heresy?

how many planners? how many captured alive or dead and where?

Apparently no one had the time to go through this. This word in town was first raised by me a couple of days ago in thread below.

https://defence.pk/threads/turn-of-...-and-probable-future-myths-or-reality.429802/

The threat level was first raised by US Embassy in Islamabad a few weeks ago.

I can verify this with almost near certainty that this rumour was quite true. The last two weeks in Islamabad (and especially the red zone) were quite tense.

You Are Right Bro My Uncle Is In MoD And He Has Said That There Is A Serious Threat And Security Forces Alongwith Intelligence Agencies Have Been Carrying Out Operations In The Vicinity

 

[HRK]

All was done after 1 insect was caught by ISI..

And now this.

& that was an Afghan NDS agent .... if I am not wrong ....

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

& that was an Afghan NDS agent .... if I am not wrong ....

No idea ..

 

[EAK]

I was at Serena 2 days ago.. Security was just Ok (Like their routine).. every thing and every one looked normal...Well Let's see what comes out.. If true then quite an achievement for Agencies..

 

[Mutakalim]

Apparently ISI/ MI raided and captured the unknown number of terrorists and their planners red handed with complete tactical assault gear.


idea was to take massive people hostage and execute them systematically and upload their live executions on the internet

There was a security alert issued, but here in Islamabad we consider it as routine. Sometimes they even don't bother to check the entrance card and at times they are even checking bag packs.

In the circles---I don't want to name---Nawaz is being seriously considered as an indian Plant. Supposedly---he sold out to india before the agitation that brought back Benazir and allowed Nawaz back into the country as well.

It's a serious allegation. I can't deny it with certainty, but your assumption leads to inability and incompetence of whole Military establishment. If they are not sure about the loyalty of their supreme commander than God protect us all. This country is doomed.

Hi,

If you notice a certain lacl of reaction to what has happened in the recent past regarding some indian agents or in the past about the ' files 'that were to be handed over---and other deals with Modi---and no statements against india about any issues---about his chidren asking india for help many a years ago---.

It all leads to one thing---Nawaz sold out his soul to get back into power and wanted to punish Pakistanis for what they did to him.

And now to top it off---the indian media---how they want to protect Nawaz---their asset---their investment---.

Where there is smoke---there is fire.

[Major Sam]

well i am amazed why we are not raising this attack details with world assertively.

 

[New Resolve]

Aha they mentioned terrorists caught from Afghan Refugee Camp, ok load them all up in trucks and send them back to their handlers across the border. If a major terrorist attack has indeed been thwarted, great job by the Intel guys.

Its the facilitators that need to be made an example of in front of the nation, seize all their property, name and shame them so others realize what happens to traitors and terrorist sympathisers.

You never talk about any investigation till it ends. This here is Pakistan's national security. You can get a feeling of how sensitive the situation may be, by the US memo to her citizens not to go near the Marriott!! Your politicians need to also remember this, when something is referred to an institute like the SC, no one should talk about it till the investigation has been completed.

 

[F.O.X]

He might know more but Islamabad station chief was tight lipped when asked in a private gathering
Anyway I thought someone might know and share more

If the Station Chief is keeping it quite , there no one here who is going to tell anything publicly.
