Feb 8, 2023 ..

Karachi:  Karachi Police’s Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) on Wednesday claimed to have arrested an Islamic State-linked terrorist who was “collecting donations” from the Pakistani city of Karachi to send it to Afghanistan, media reports said.


“Acting on a tip-off, the CTD conducted a raid in the Korangi Industrial Area and detained an important commander affiliated with the global militant Islamic State group,” the department said in a handout as quoted by Dawn News.

The arrested Afghan national was identified as Abdul Malik.

It said that the suspect, who was living in Karachi for a long time, used to collect “donations” in Ramazan usually, which were then sent to the IS in Afghanistan.

During interrogation, the suspect revealed that he had been in touch with the IS’ Mulla Abdul Manan group since 2011, the CTD was quoted as saying by Dawn News.


In addition, he disclosed that he was involved in the illegal “hawala/hundi” business and had sent “millions of rupees” to Afghanistan through it, the department added.

The CTD found a 30-bore pistol on him. A cell phone was also recovered, from which “vital information” had been obtained. Forensics were also being carried out on the device.
