The attackes of Shuja Khanzada, the late home minister of Pakistan's Punjab province, have been identified and will soon be apprehended, provincial Law Minister Rana Sanaullah Khan has said.

"The culprits behind the Attock district attack have been identified and efforts are underway to arrest them," Radio Pakistan quoted Sanaullah as saying in a news conference in Lahore on Tuesday.

"The government will not rest till the culprits have been brought to justice," he said.
