Update Thu 5th

Maryam Qayyeum, 15, one of those who surrendered, told the Associated Press news agency that those who were staying back in the mosque "only wanted martyrdom".

One of the mosque's senior clerics was captured by police as he tried to leave the building disguised as a woman.




Maulana Abdul Aziz was caught wearing the burqa, an all-enveloping sheet-like dress adopted by some Muslim women. A security official told the AFP news agency the cleric was noticed because his height and his large stomach set him apart from the women he was with. more

No Martyrdom for the cleric then, now why could that be?
