Pakistan police arrest soldier with explosives

Police in the Pakistani capital have arrested a soldier who was carrying one kg (2.2 lb) of explosives and some detonators, police said on Sunday.

The man, named by police as Imtiaz Hussain, was arrested on Friday during a routine check of passengers at a bus station on the outskirts of Islamabad, one policeman said.

The Daily Times newspaper said the man had been planning an attack but police, intelligence and military officials could not confirm the report.

Security agents have made a series of arrests across Pakistan since Monday's capture of senior Islamic militant Abu Faraj Farj al Liby, a Libyan whom President Bush described as one of Osama bin Laden's top generals.
