Lahore park suicide blast: Taliban faction claims responsibility, kills over 65

Lahore park suicide blast: Taliban faction claims responsibility, kills over 65
Lahore park suicide blast: Taliban faction claims responsibility, kills over 65
A suicide bomber killed at least 65 people, mostly women and children, at a park in Lahore on Sunday in an attack claimed by a Pakistani Taliban faction which said it had targeted Christians. More than 300 other people were wounded, officials said.

The chief minister of Punjab province, Shahbaz Sharif, announced three days mourning and pledged to ensure that those involved in the attack are brought to trial.

Senior police officer Haider Ashraf says the explosion took place close to the children's rides in Gulshan-e-Iqbal park. He says the explosion appeared to have been a suicide bombing, but investigations were ongoing. The area was crowded with Christians celebrating the Easter holidays, he said.
The Taliban faction Jamaat-ul-Ahrar claimed responsibility for the attack.

“The target was Christians,” a spokesman for the faction, Ehsanullah Ehsan, said. “We want to send this message to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif that we have entered Lahore. He can do what he wants but he won’t be able to stop us. Our suicide bombers will continue these attacks.”


"It is suspected that a suicide bomber blew himself up at the main gate of the park," Deputy Inspector General Lahore Police Haider Asharaf said. He said about 8-10 kilogrammes of explosive might have been used in the blast.

Heard about the blast in Lahore. I strongly condemn it. My condolences to families of the deceased & prayers with the injured: PM

District Coordination Officer Lahore retired Capt Muhammad Usman said: "At least 56 people have been killed and over 126 injured in the blast."

He, however, ruled out that Christians were the target of the attack. "It was not a Christian park. Christians may be among the dead."

Punjab minister Bilal Yasin said over 200 people have been injured in the blast. "The death toll may rise as a number of injured are in critical condition," he said.

An official of the Punjab police told reporters that the suicide bomber - believed to be in his 20s - managed to enter the park and blew himself up near the swings. "It appears that the suicide bomber's main target were children," he said.

The park is located in a posh-locality in Lahore - a comparatively peaceful city in an otherwise violence-wrecked Pakistan which is also the hometown of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.

The army has joined rescue officials to shift the injured to hospitals. An emergency has been declared in city hospitals and appeals have been made to people to donate blood.

"We must bring the killers of our innocent brothers, sisters and children to justice and will never allow these savage inhumans to over-run our life and liberty," military spokesman  Asim Bajwa said in a post on Twitter.

Eyewitnesses said there were scattered body parts all around the park, where a large number of families, especially women and children, were present on a Sunday evening. The crowd was "unusually large" because of Easter.

"My two children were taking swings when a powerful blast occurred. Me and the children fell on the ground. I was semi-unconscious. When I fully regained consciousness I ran to find my children," Saleem Shahid, one of the injured in the blast, said at a city hospital where he was being treated.
His children sustained injuries in the blast. "Thank God! They were alive having injuries on their head. I tore my shirt and made a bandage of it," Shahid said.

Police tried to evacuate the park but people looking for their kins refused to leave the place. "Still a good number of people are in critical condition," Emergency Services Rescue spokesperson Deeba Shahnaz said.

Punjab government has announced a three-day mourning in the province. Several leaders, including Prime Minister Sharif and Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf chief Imran Khan, have condemned the blast. Christians leaders also strongly condemned the attack.

MANILA, Philippines – Philippine authorities were not able to trace the exact location of the $81-million stolen money from Bangladesh Bank's account, citing the country's "strict bank secrecy and weak anti-money laundering act (AMLA)" as hindrances to reach a meaningful probe.
After 5 hours of questioning, the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee on Tuesday, March 15 got frustrated with Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation (RCBC) Jupiter, Makati City branch manager Maia Santos-Deguito and RCBC president and CEO Lorenzo Tan for invoking bank secrecy and their right against self-incrimination.
Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) Executive Director Julia Bacay-Abad also expressed her frustrations during the hearing, conceding that "the money trail ended at casinos. It's a dead end. Non-inclusion of casino in AMLA just increased the probability of money laundering in the Philippines."
The law, which was first introduced in 2001, left casinos off the list of entities required to report suspicious transactions to the AMLC. 
"What is important here is that casinos should be covered by AMLC. You see, we are having a difficult time with the investigation now. Other nations are now saying: Philippines, you are too risky to deal with. You have very weak AMLA laws," Senator Teofisto Guingona III told reporters after the hearing.
Senator Sergio Osmeña III, author of AMLA, said: "It's like we are far from seeing the light at the end of the tunnel...It is high time to revisit AMLA and bank secrecy laws."
AMLC member and Insurance Commissioner Emmanuel Dooc said a stronger anti-money laundering law should be implemented to reach a meaningful probe.
"Now we are faced with the questions: Is the inclusion of casino operators necessary in our AML/CFT (Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism) regime? The thing speaks for itself," Dooc said during the hearing,
"The lesson we learned from this recent episode is unmistakable: We have to put more teeth in our laws to stop criminal elements from exploiting the deficiencies in our system," Dooc added.
‘RCBC allowed it'
During the Senate probe, Guingona revealed that RCBC allowed the withdrawal of some $81 million funds suspected to have been stolen from Bangladesh Bank’s accounts even if it received a stop payment order from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on February 8, a banking holiday in the Phiippines.
It was on February 5 when RCBC received the suspicious funds, Guingona said. 
"On the morning of February 9, the first banking day, you should have seen the stop payment request. But apparently it was not honored because the funds were withdrawn," Guingona told Tan before the hearing.
Citing documents filed by AMLC with the courts, Guingona said, "RCBC responded to the Bangladesh Bank's stop payment request at 7:45 pm of February 9. That was the end of the day already."
The senator moved forward by asking Tan: "Would you care to explain why the stop payment request – which should have been honored at the very start of the banking day – was not honored?"

But Tan invoked his right to bank secrecy and declined to reveal details of the transactions made.
"Sorry, your honor. I cannot confirm or deny this request specific to this transaction," Tan told Guingona.
Guingona further asked Tan if RCBC’s head office sent the stop payment order to Deguito.
"Again, your honor, I’m precluded because of bank secrecy. But as a general rule, these orders are sent by the head office to the branch manager," Tan replied. 
The chair of the Senate Blue Ribbon committee then asked Deguito how such huge funds easily coursed through the bank despite indications from the Federal Bank that the transactions were illegal.
"February 9 was a banking day. That was a Tuesday. $81 million was still there in the accounts," said Guingona.
"On February 9, all the $81 millon was withdrawn. Did you not have a stop payment request on February 9?" he asked Deguito.
But just like Tan, Deguito also invoked the Bank Secrecy Law and her right against self-incrimination, as AMLC has filed a case against her. 
"But I’m willing to answer questions only in a closed-door executive session," she said.

'Dead end'
Bacay-Abad said the stolen funds were moved to 4 RCBC bank accounts that were opened in May 2015 and had remained idle until the transfers were made on February 5, 2016.
The accounts were named under Michael F. Cruz, Jessie C. Lagrosas, Alfred S. Vergara, and Enrico T. Vasquez, who were later found "fictitious."
After the transfer to the 4 bank accounts, Bacay-Abad said the funds were immediately withdrawn and deposited under the account of Filipino-Chinese businessman William S. Go, who was also at the Senate and denied any involvement. He claimed he never opened a bank account in RCBC Jupiter, Makati City branch.
The funds were converted into pesos and delivered in cash tranches to a WeiKang Xu by remittance firm Philrem Service Corporation, the remittance firm's president Salud Bautista told the Senate.
A representative of Solaire Resort and Casino confirmed this and said Xu is a registered junket casino operator.
When asked where the stolen money is now, Bacay-Abad said "the last information we have is that it ended in casinos, which are out of our jurisdiction."
'Issue not helping'
For Espenilla, this latest money laundering case "is not helping" the Philippines address its problematic reputation abroad.
"The issue here is that those banks operating under their own anti-money laundering laws... What happens is they make this decision to close down accounts of Philippine remittance companies," Espenilla said.
"Under their laws, banks have the right to determine the risk coming with their partnership with certain businesses."
Bangladesh Ambassador to the Philippines John Gomes said on the sidelines of the hearing that his country "still hopes to recover the funds."
With just a little information bared, Guingona set the next Senate hearing on Thursday, March 17. Rappler.com

WHO Update: Zika virus

Zika Virus
REUTERS / MA QIANG / SOUTHERN METROPOLIS DAILY
Male Aedes albopictus mosquitoes are seen in this picture. Zika virus is among the viruses spead by the species.
Key facts
  • Zika virus disease is caused by a virus transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes.
  • People with Zika virus disease usually have symptoms that can include mild fever, skin rashes, conjunctivitis, muscle and joint pain, malaise or headache. These symptoms normally last for 2-7 days.
  • There is no specific treatment or vaccine currently available.
  • The best form of prevention is protection against mosquito bites.
  • The virus is known to circulate in Africa, the Americas, Asia and the Pacific.


Introduction

Zika virus is an emerging mosquito-borne virus that was first identified in Uganda in 1947 in rhesus monkeys through a monitoring network of sylvatic yellow fever. It was subsequently identified in humans in 1952 in Uganda and the United Republic of Tanzania. Outbreaks of Zika virus disease have been recorded in Africa, the Americas, Asia and the Pacific.
  • Genre: Flavivirus
  • Vector: Aedes mosquitoes (which usually bite during the morning and late afternoon/evening hours)
  • Reservoir: Unknown


Signs and Symptoms

The incubation period (the time from exposure to symptoms) of Zika virus disease is not clear, but is likely to be a few days. The symptoms are similar to other arbovirus infections such as dengue, and include fever, skin rashes, conjunctivitis, muscle and joint pain, malaise, and headache. These symptoms are usually mild and last for 2-7 days.

Potential complications of Zika virus disease

During large outbreaks in French Polynesia and Brazil in 2013 and 2015 respectively, national health authorities reported potential neurological and auto-immune complications of Zika virus disease. Recently in Brazil, local health authorities have observed an increase in Guillain-Barré syndrome which coincided with Zika virus infections in the general public, as well as an increase in babies born with microcephaly in northeast Brazil. Agencies investigating the Zika outbreaks are finding an increasing body of evidence about the link between Zika virus and microcephaly. However, more investigation is needed to better understand the relationship between microcephaly in babies and the Zika virus. Other potential causes are also being investigated.

Transmission

Zika virus is transmitted to people through the bite of an infected mosquito from theAedes genus, mainly Aedes aegypti in tropical regions. This is the same mosquito that transmits dengue, chikungunya and yellow fever. However, sexual transmission of Zika virus has been described in 2 cases, and the presence of the Zika virus in semen in 1 additional case.
Zika virus disease outbreaks were reported for the first time from the Pacific in 2007 and 2013 (Yap and French Polynesia, respectively), and in 2015 from the Americas (Brazil and Colombia) and Africa (Cabo Verde). In addition, more than 13 countries in the Americas have reported sporadic Zika virus infections indicating rapid geographic expansion of Zika virus.

Diagnosis

Infection with Zika virus may be suspected based on symptoms and recent history (e.g. residence or travel to an area where Zika virus is known to be present). Zika virus diagnosis can only be confirmed by laboratory testing for the presence of Zika virus RNA in the blood or other body fluids, such as urine or saliva.

Prevention

Mosquitoes and their breeding sites pose a significant risk factor for Zika virus infection. Prevention and control relies on reducing mosquitoes through source reduction (removal and modification of breeding sites) and reducing contact between mosquitoes and people.

This can be done by using insect repellent regularly; wearing clothes (preferably light-coloured) that cover as much of the body as possible; using physical barriers such as window screens, closed doors and windows; and if needed, additional personal protection, such as sleeping under mosquito nets during the day. It is extremely important to empty, clean or cover containers regularly that can store water, such as buckets, drums, pots etc. Other mosquito breeding sites should be cleaned or removed including flower pots, used tyres and roof gutters. Communities must support the efforts of the local government to reduce the density of mosquitoes in their locality.

Repellents should contain DEET (N, N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide), IR3535 (3-[N-acetyl-N-butyl]-aminopropionic acid ethyl ester) or icaridin (1-piperidinecarboxylic acid, 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-methylpropylester). Product label instructions should be strictly followed. Special attention and help should be given to those who may not be able to protect themselves adequately, such as young children, the sick or elderly.

During outbreaks, health authorities may advise that spraying of insecticides be carried out. Insecticides recommended by the WHO Pesticide Evaluation Scheme may also be used as larvicides to treat relatively large water containers.

Travellers should take the basic precautions described above to protect themselves from mosquito bites.

Treatment

Zika virus disease is usually relatively mild and requires no specific treatment. People sick with Zika virus should get plenty of rest, drink enough fluids, and treat pain and fever with common medicines. If symptoms worsen, they should seek medical care and advice. There is currently no vaccine available.

WHO response

WHO is supporting countries to control Zika virus disease through:
  • Define and prioritize research into Zika virus disease by convening experts and partners.
  • Enhance surveillance of Zika virus and potential complications.
  • Strengthen capacity in risk communication to help countries meet their commitments under the International Health Regulations.
  • Provide training on clinical management, diagnosis and vector control including through a number of WHO Collaborating Centres.
  • Strengthen the capacity of laboratories to detect the virus.
  • Support health authorities to implement vector control strategies aimed at reducing Aedes mosquito populations such as providing larvicide to treat standing water sites that cannot be treated in other ways, such as cleaning, emptying, and covering them.
  • Prepare recommendations for clinical care and follow-up of people with Zika virus, in collaboration with experts and other health agencies
