Pakistan security officials arrested a United States citizen on Monday May 5, 2014 at Karachi airport before boarding a plane to Islamabad for carrying ammunition under the country’s anti-terrrorism laws. According to report in Washington Post, the detained  US citizen is a Federal Burue of Investigation agent assigned in Pakistan on a temporary mission. He was presented in a local court on May 6.

Pakistan Airport Security Forces detained the US citizen Joel Cox at the Jinnah International airport in Karachi when bullets were discovered in his baggage. Joel Cox was attempting to board a local flight from Karachi to Islamabad.

According to security sources 15 bullets of 9mm caliber and a pistol magazine was found in his baggage. It is illegal to carry weapon or ammunition on a plane under Pakistan’s anti-terrorism laws.

Security forces presented the US citizen in a local court yesterday on charges of violation of  anti-terrorism laws.  The court judge allowed the detention of  US citizen  till Saturday for further questioning and investigation of the matter.

Washington Post has reported that detained US citizen was a FBI agent  “assigned to the FBI Miami Field Office and was in Pakistan on temporary duty” quoting officials in Washington.

“The agent was in Pakistan as part of a multi-agency effort to help the Pakistanis investigate corruption,” he was not armed and  apparently forgotten the bullets in the baggage, the official told the Washington Post.

Meghan Gregonis, the spokeswoman for US embassy in Islamabad,  has said that we are working with the Pakistani officials closely to resolve the matter. 

“We are aware of the reports, and we are coordinating closely with Pakistani authorities on the matter,” Meghan Gregonis said.

Pakistani officials are gathering more information on the nature of the FBI agent’s work in Pakistan.

    This agent is satan’s son. I know from Justice David Houston home surveillance in South Bridgton, Maine in June 2012 that this crusader western devil stole dozens of weapons to plant on Muslim children in the USA, so Bridgton Maine Police can laughingly execute muslim children with a wink and a nod. Bridgton Police officer Phil Jones, a pedophile, and desecrator of Justice Houston’s Koran attempted to murder Justice Houston after attacking him at the Bridgton Police Station. Allah’s Arm of Justice with many heads this summer.Cells to administer justice in 800 school buses a day will be the penance for Bridgton’s Chief of police and Jewish Camps. Piano wire for the neck of this dog and slave to Jewish filth in Maine. Judge Houston is to open a lending center with the help of Bank Melli London. Justice Houston, a wiz of bearer bonds has been threatened by Attorney Bruce Rood and Judge Mazziotti that no ‘Sand Nigger Bank’ will be allowed, only Kike,usury lending allowed.
