MULTAN: The counterterrorism police made more arrests on Saturday in connection with a car bombing earlier in the week that killed three people and wounded 25.
Investigating officer Ahmed Wakeel said police arrested a man from Mandi Bahauddin, who had sold the car used in the Wednesday blast.
The explosion took place outside the residence of Hafiz Saeed Ahmad.
Wakeel said two other men were picked up in Khyber 0 Pakhtunkhwa province, who were allegedly involved in rigging the explosives in the car. Police now have five suspects in custody in connection with the blast.
