Pakistan’s spy agencies have revealed that a terror plan targeting PPP leader Awais Muzaffar Tappi and Bilawal Hose was being considered, media quoted officials as saying on Thursday.

The target list of the militants include names of a judge, six policemen, 10 political leaders, 12 religious leaders and two journalist and businessmen each.
