Spate of attacks

Police hunting an alleged mastermind of the 2002 Bali bombings seized two Frenchmen arrested in Pakistan for suspected ties to Al-Qaeda-linked militants. The two Frenchmen were arrested on the basis of information received from a Pakistani militant being held. Taliban and Al-Qaeda-linked militants launch almost daily attacks across northwest Pakistan and the tribal belt and this should come to an end. We should apply the zero tolerance policy towards the militants and eliminate them for once and for all. KHURRAM SALEEM, Islamabad, April 22.
