a Pakistani court sentenced militant Jan Maqbool to death and another man to life imprisonment after finding them guilty of involvement in two deadly blasts in Lahore on September 22, 2005.
The suspects — members of an outlawed tribal militant group blamed for scores of attacks in southwestern Baluchistan province — were captured after the bombings.
Police said the men belonged to the Baluchistan Liberation Army, an ethnic-Baluch tribal group that Pakistan banned in April over a series of attacks in the province in recent years.
