The Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) Sindh has arrested seven terrorists during separate intelligence-based operations conducted in Karachi and interior Sindh, targeting individuals linked with banned outfits operating in sensitive regions of the province, according to official sources.
In the first operation, CTD Sindh apprehended five terrorists reportedly associated with the banned group identified as BRG. Security sources stated that the group has been active in various districts along the Sindh–Balochistan border, including Jaffarabad, Naseerabad, Jacobabad, and Shikarpur, where it is suspected of maintaining logistical and operational networks.
Officials said the arrests were made following actionable intelligence regarding the presence and movement of suspected operatives. The detained individuals are believed to have been involved in activities aimed at supporting the operational structure of the banned organization in border-adjacent districts.
In a separate operation in Karachi, CTD Sindh arrested two additional terrorists linked with another banned outfit, identified as SRA. The arrests were carried out near the Main Hub River Road area at the Bus Terminal in Yousuf Goth, a locality considered strategically significant due to its transit connectivity and urban density.
Security sources confirmed that both operations were conducted as part of ongoing intelligence-based counterterrorism efforts aimed at dismantling terrorist networks, disrupting facilitation structures, and preventing potential security threats in urban and rural areas of Sindh.
Officials stated that preliminary investigations are underway to determine the extent of the suspects’ involvement, their network linkages, and possible connections to wider terrorist infrastructure operating across provincial boundaries.
Authorities emphasized that CTD Sindh continues to intensify intelligence-driven operations across the province to ensure the identification, tracking, and neutralization of elements linked to banned organizations. They reiterated that no space will be allowed for terrorist networks to regroup or operate within Sindh.
Security analysts note that terrorist groups often attempt to exploit border-adjacent districts and densely populated urban transit zones for logistical support, making sustained intelligence-based operations critical for long-term stability.
