](http://www.dawn.com/wps/wcm/connect/dawn-content-library/dawn/news/pakistan/metropolitan/13+police+want+blue+book+amended--za-01) GHALANAI: At least 13 militants were killed in a clash with security forces following arrest of five burqa-clad Arabs, one Afghan national and a local man in Mohmand Agency on Tuesday.
Four of the five Arabs are Saudi nationals — Ahmed, Ali, Mohammad and Obaidullah — and one Libyan national, Abdullah. The Afghan national has been identified as Habibullah and the local man as Shad Ali. They were detained at the Khapakh checkpost. The Afghan was living in Chakdara area of Lower Dir.
When troops were taking the detained men to Ghalanai, about 60 militants attacked them in an area between Ziyari Kando and Nasapai. The clash continued for more than two hours, an official spokesman said.
Security forces shelled militants’ positions from Ghalanai with mortars and cannons. Thirteen terrorists were killed and the others escaped. Two vehicles of militants were destroyed, the spokesman said.
Security personnel brought the body of one militant to the Ghalanai FC camp; the other bodies were taken away by the attackers. The administration sealed all entry points to the tribal region and beefed up security to apprehend the fleeing militants.
Troops also launched a search operation in Mian Mandi Bazaar.
A jirga of tribal elders will be held in Ghalanai on Wednesday to discuss the presence of militants, including foreigners, in the area.
The spokesman said the detained militants had been hiding in Kareer Qandaharo and Kung Khwayzai for several days and they had attacked the Khapakh post.
‘They came to Pakistan via Afghanistan which is financing them,’ he alleged.
He said SMGs, hand-grenades, Kalashnikovs, passports and other important documents had been seized from them and their vehicle had been impounded.
Re: Pak army catches Burqa-Clad Arabs running away from the Malakand
^^^ there is no use for these kind of useless morons. Humanity would be better off if they're put sleep.
Btw, whats is funny is that they're coming to our country to fight so called their jihad. If they're so crazy about jihad they should start with their own home countries 1st. I say send them to Gitmo or put them to sleep.

Send them to Gitmo?? No. That would make Pakistanis as bad as Bush & Cheney & Rumsfeld and that whole lot.
We are catching SAUDIS, and LIBYANS and Egyptian (in previous raids) and still we can’t openly say that

This is the hight of mental retardation by this Mahmood Shah guy the analyst.
Now if they bring these Saudis on TV and these guys clearly point and link to their Indian handlers, there may be a point.
because “bharat” “eenDeeya” is believed to be using Afghan consulates to train/fund/arm afghans and then they cross over the rugged terrain to cause mischief in Pakistan. afghanis and other foreigners being arrested only proves Pakistan’s stance all this time that these guys are being funded/armed/and transported from within Afghanistan. so if anything the heat should be on US/Nato for not doing enough to secure the border, hence allowing these guys to cross over.
if the likes of Hosni mubarak a fully blooded arab by all means can be “bought” by u.s., why can’t these ordinary arabs/uzbeks/afghans be lured in by cash and other amenities…? a different carrot for everyone.
i hope ISI can interrogate them and extract all vital information, and take the fight to the source. it will also help in defeating TTP and clean Pakistan’s of these extremists.
