From Times Wire Reports
Pakistani police arrested a man who survived a September massacre at a Christian charity in Karachi, officials said.
Robin Peeranditta, an office assistant at the Institute of Peace and Justice, was detained after eight colleagues were shot Sept. 25. Seven died and the eighth is in a coma. Peeranditta was apparently beaten but not shot.
Police have been skeptical of Peeranditta’s role, saying he twice changed the number of attackers he described. It was not known what the charge against him would be.
