Al Jazeera reports that arrests have been made in the Marriott hotel bombing. One can only hope the criminal are brought to justice.
Four held over Pakistan hotel blast
The arrested men appeared in a Rawalpindi court on Friday
Police in Pakistan have arrested four men in connection with last month's suicide bomb attack on the Marriott hotel in the capital Islamabad.
Fifty-five people died and around 160 were injured in the September 20 bombing after a lorry loaded with explosives blew up outside the hotel.
The men, arrested on suspicion of "indirect involvement" in the bombing, appeared in a Rawalpindi court on Friday.
Altaf Ali Khattak, a senior police official, said: "The court has given us a seven-day remand for these men and we will continue our investigation."
The suspects are being held under various sections of anti-terrorism legislation and are yet to be formally charged.

They'd arrest anybody. No reason to believe these guys did anything except piss off the powers in Pakistan.
