KANDAHAR, Sept 2: Authorities in Afghanistan said on Sunday they had detained four Pakistanis on suspicion of helping insurgents build bombs, as new blasts killed three soldiers and wounded a dozen people.
The alleged militants were seized on Friday in Kandahar soon after they arrived from Chaman, a town just across the border in Pakistan, intelligence official Abdul Qayoum Katawazi told AFP.
“On a tip-off we captured four Pakistanis who are experts in making suicide-bombing vests and remote-controlled bombs,” Katawazi said.—AFP
