One suspected militant approaching the provincial capital Quetta on a motorbike was intercepted by law enforcement agencies. Explosives and other arms were recovered from his possession, said an CTD spokesperson. Two hand grenades, 1,580 grams of explosive material, four feet of det-cord and two detonators were recovered.
