KARACHI: Initial investigations into the terror attack on PNS Mehran in
Karachi revealed on Saturday that the terrorists attacked the navy
installation in two groups, Express 24/7 reported. 

One of the groups targeted P3C Orion aircraft while the other entered the
flight line building. Security forces surrounded that building from three
sides and an exchange of fire ensued.

According to an officer of the investigating team, one of the terrorists,
who was hiding inside the building, got injured by a bullet and blew himself
up, turning the building into rubble. The rubble has now been removed from
the base. All necessary evidence has also been collected from the site.

Earlier, five people were taken into custody for suspected involvement in
the attacks. One of the suspects was nabbed from Faisalabad

One of the arrests resulted from traced phone calls from a terrorist cell
phone, recovered after the 17-hour siege at PNS Mehran Base
