During interrogation, Sajidullah alias Sheena, the handler of the suicide bomber, confessed that TTP and Fitna-al-Khwarij Commander Saeed-ur-Rehman alias Daadullah (resident of Charmang, Bajaur, currently in Afghanistan, and serving as TTP’s Intelligence Chief for Nawagai Bajaur), contacted him through the Telegram application to carry out a suicide attack in Islamabad to cause maximum casualties of law enforcement agencies.
Daadullah sent pictures of the suicide bomber Usman alias Qari to Sajidullah alias Sheena for receiving him.
The suicide bomber Usman Qari belonged to the Shinwari tribe and was a resident of Achin, Nangarhar, Afghanistan. When he reached Pakistan from Afghanistan, Sajidullah alias Sheena arranged his stay in a residence near Islamabad.
