Twelve People Die

Black Pakistani commandos overpowered a group of people who had took control over a police academy. They took cadets hostage. Then they killed at least six of them today in a dramatic challenge. This was to the civilian government that faces U.S. pressure to defeat Islamic people. The security forces went through the place on the outskirts of Lahore. This was to end the eight hour attack by the grenade throwing gunmen. Three militants blew themselves up and authorities arrested four of the militants. At least three other unidentified bodies were recovered. A Taliban member claimed to speak on behalf of a not very famous known group called the Fedayeen al-Islam. He said that they were behind the attack. Gunmen suprised attacked Sri Lanka's cricket team in Lahore. They killed seven people and people didn't think they had the ability to cause so much damage. It was far from Pakistans northwestern regions bordering Afghanistan. Lahore attacked followed a crackdown on the Pakistani group Lashkar-e-Taiba. There has been speculation that Monday's raid was revenge for the crackdown. Pakistan's not great ability to prevent the attack appeared to be a very smart failure. The security forces fired their guns in the air in celebration.
