Guards deployed at the gate stopped the attacker before
he could enter the FIA office. Security forces evacuated the
office and nearby buildings and launched a search for three
more terrorists believed to be in the area, said SP
(Investigation) Haider Ashraf.

The terrorists who attacked the police training centres
at Bedian Road and Manawan lobbed several grenades and traded
fire with policemen and paramilitary Pakistan Rangers troops
that surrounded the facilities.
SSP (Operations) Chaudhry Shafiq Ahmad said 10
policemen and four terrorists were killed at the Manawan
facility. One of the terrorists wearing a suicide jacket blew
up when he was shot by policemen while another detonated his
explosives.
At the Bedian Road facility, army commandos gunned down
all five terrorists involved in the attack, Lt Gen Shafqat
Ahmad told reporters. The terrorists entered the facility by
scaling a wall but were spotted by guards. Some of the
attackers blew themselves up.
One policeman and one civilian were also killed in the
attack on the Bedian Road facility. Several loud explosions
were heard from within the police centre.
"They (terrorists) all seem to be young boys aged between
18 and 20. Three of them wearing suicide jackets blew
themselves up," Ahmad said.
Lahore Police Commissioner Khusro Pervez said the
terrorists were heavily-armed and carried explosives. He said
army commandos were called in to end the terrorist siege
at Bedian Road. (More) PTI MZ
