Threats Prompt Enhancement of Security around Scientists

Following terror threats mentioned by a Lashkar-e-Tayyeba (LeT) operative deported from Muscat, authorities have enhanced the security shield around 10 scientists working in sensitive areas, say media reports.

The scientists who have not been identified are working in crucial areas of nuclear, defence and space fields, reported PTI News Agency.

The names of the scientists were mentioned by Sarfaraz Nawaz, who was deported from Muscat, during interrogation and which were further corroborated by T Nazir, LeT’s pointsman in South India, it added.

While security agencies brought back Nawaz from Muscat, Nazir was arrested along the Indo-Bangladesh border in Northeast recently.
