Pakistan's intelligence agencies have arrested three men in the southern port city of Karachi for their alleged links to Ajmal Qasab, the lone terrorist captured during 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks.
"The intelligence agencies had taken the three men into custody from different parts of Karachi because of their alleged affiliation with Kasab," the Daily Times newspaper quoted a source as saying.
The men were "reportedly taken to Islamabad and an investigation was in progress", the newspaper reported.
There was no official word on the development. The spokesman for the interior ministry could not be reached for comments. The three men were arrested by the Federal Investigation Agency and other intelligence agencies, it said.
