The Theories behind the Attack in Pakistan

When the Yonis Khan decided to delay the departure of his team from Pearl Continental on Tuesday morning, it raised doubts in so many minds whether the terrorists were targeting Sri Lankan team or the Pakistan team which left the hotel before Sri Lankan team. However seconds before Sri Lankans left the hotel security received a tip off wanting them to change the route to the stadium. This was beloved to be credible & received from Lahore Police. Also few days earlier, the Punjab Interior Ministry had been warned by the government about a terrorist attack within next 48hours.


Although these were happening in the background 12 terrorists managed to attack the coach which was transporting the Sri Lankan cricketers to the stadium & kill 8 people injuring about 20.


Since those 12 men left unanswered questions there are 4 possible scenarios which the actual truth may rest.


• ISLAMIST MILITANTS
• BALUCH GROUPS
• OUTSIDE PAKISTAN -- SRI LANKA'S TAMIL TIGERS
• INDIA


However out of the 4 scenarios the most likely one is the Islamist Militants al-Qaeda due to the nature of the attack which drove huge attention mainly because of the ‘wow’ nature of the attack
