In light of the ongoing terrorist danger in Islamabad, a picture of a “suicide bomber” has been released.
Intelligence sources have warned that a terrorist by the name of Zakir Khan may visit the nation’s capital in order to carry out a terrorist attack.
Security has been put on high alert following reports of a potential terrorist assault in Islamabad, with law enforcement officials releasing a photo of the likely suicide bomber who would strike the nation’s capital, according to Express News.
The news comes days after the governments of the US, UK, Saudi Arabia, and Australia issued warnings to their residents in Pakistan, forbidding them from visiting a five-star hotel in Islamabad due to the potential threat of a terrorist attack.
A police official chose martyrdom and several others were hurt when a suicide bomber detonated himself during a check-up in Sector I-10 of Islamabad, prompting the extraordinary advisory and threat alert.
According to police officials and witnesses, this was the first suicide attack in the nation’s capital in more than eight years.
The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) has claimed responsibility for the blast, which happened close to the police headquarters on the main route leading to the government complexes housing the parliament and other important offices.
Sources claim that intelligence officials have alerted law enforcement agencies that a terrorist called Zakir Khan s/o Laiq from Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa may attempt to enter Islamabad for terrorist action.
They said that police in the nation’s capital have been informed by law enforcement agencies. Authorities have implemented stringent security measures, and the capital has been placed on red alert.
Due to the deployment of more FC troops at the main entrance, Parliament House security has also been stepped up. It is also forbidden for strangers to enter.
Gate One of the Parliament House has been Made Accessible, according to sources. Standing committee meetings have been postponed, and the Parliament Building is only open to registered journalists, employees, and lawmakers.
The inhabitants of Islamabad are having issues as a result of the police in Islamabad performing random checks throughout the city.
Due to rigorous security measures in light of the terror threat, citizens have been encouraged to arrive at offices or commercial locations 15 to 20 minutes early.
The police have urged the populace to assist the authorities in their inspections and promptly report any odd activities.
