'At least 12 people were killed and several others injured when a group of militants stormed a hospital in this eastern Pakistani city in an apparent bid to free a terrorist who was captured in an injured condition during an attack last week.oh I forgot the BBC try to minimise coverage of the many hundreds of people, usually Muslims, killed by Muslims every week; the BBC preferring to concentrate on those few people killed by those evil illegitimate Israelis.
Four to six militants entered the emergency ward of the Jinnah Hospital shortly before midnight and fired indiscriminately, officials said. Javed Akram, chief executive of the hospital, said a dozen people were killed and several others injured in the attack.
"There was indiscriminate firing by the terrorists. They were trying to free the injured terrorist who was captured last week and was being treated in the hospital," Akram told the media on phone from inside the hospital.
Officials said three policemen deputed to guard the injured terrorist were among the dead. Reports said the militants destroyed lights as they made their way through the hospital in a bid to confuse policemen who surrounded the building. They also took some doctors hostage before making their way to the roof of the hospital.
The injured terrorist, Moaz alias Amir Muavia, was captured when he attacked a mosque of the minority Ahmedi sect in the Model Town area of Lahore on Friday.
At least 95 people were killed and over 100 injured when two groups of terrorists attacked two Ahmedi mosques. Some injured members of the Ahmedi sect are also being treated in the Jinnah Hospital.'
