The information ministry on Thursday said that all terrorists involved in the attack on Cadet College Wana in South Waziristan were Afghan citizens.<\/p>\n
Security forces confirmed a day ago that they had successfully foiled a terrorist attack on Cadet College Wana, killing all the attackers after an intense clearance operation.<\/p>\n
The attackers had targeted the main gate of the college on Monday evening and gained entry to the educational institution, but a timely response from security forces averted a major tragedy.<\/p>\n
Government ministers had linked the attack to Afghanistan and said it was orchestrated from there.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe attack on Cadet College Wana was planned and controlled from Afghanistan. The attack was planned in Afghanistan by kharji Zahid and the final approval was given by kharji Noorwali Mehsud. All the khwarij who attacked Cadet College Wana were Afghan citizens. The equipment for this attack was provided from Afghanistan, which included American-made weapons,\u201d said the information ministry in a statement today.<\/p>\n
The ministry further said that the identities of the \u201cAfghan terrorists\u201d killed in the attack \u201cfirmly establish the links of terrorists in their bases in Afghanistan\u201d.<\/p>\n
It added that the responsibility for the attack was accepted by an unknown terrorist group, \u201cJaishul Hind\u201d, on Mehsud\u2019s orders.<\/p>\n
Mehsud is the chief of the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) terrorist group.<\/p>\n
The information ministry added he wanted to shift the responsibility from the TTP, adding that this was why the \u201cAfghan terrorist\u201d kept mentioning \u2018Jaishul Hind\u2019 in the video made during the attack.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Afghan Taliban pressurise Fitna al-Khawarij not to accept responsibility of attacks as that leads to pressure from Pakistan and friendly countries.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe attack on Cadet College Wana was aimed at increasing security concerns in Pakistan, on demand of the Indian agency RAW (Research and Analysis Wing).\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
