Pakistan = state sponsor of terrorism ReutersKABUL (Reuters) - Afghan intelligence agents said Thursday they are investigating links between Pakistan and Taliban militants who killed 26 people in three simultaneous suicide bomb and gun raids on state offices in the capital Kabul.
The three coordinated raids on two ministries and a prisons department office Wednesday show a new tactic by the Taliban, who have previously only attacked one target at a time.[...]
"As they were entering the Ministry of Justice before starting their indiscriminate killing of the civilians in there, they sent three messages to Pakistan calling for the blessing of their mastermind," Afghan intelligence chief Amrullah Saleh said.
The National Directorate of Security is investigating the possible link to Pakistan, a spokesman for the state intelligence agency said Thursday.
