ATTOCK, Aug 8: Security agencies on Saturday night re-arrested the owner of a tailoring shop in connection with the Fatehjang suicide attack on Finance Minister Shaukat Aziz and took him to an unknown place for investigation.

Mohammad Arif, owner of Arif Tailors, Attock, had earlier been picked up with his employees Zafer Iqbal and Gulzar Ahmed by law-enforcement agencies on July 30 after police found a sticker of the shop on the shirt of the suicide bomber.

They were released after four days of interrogation on Aug 2. After his release, Mr Arif told newsmen that the face and other body parts of the bomber were shown to him at the Combined Military Hospital in Rawalpindi but he could not recognize him.

Sources said Mr Arif had been handed over to the Attock police for investigation.
