ROME: A Pakistani suspected of involvement in the Peshawar market bombing -- one of the country's bloodiest attacks -- has been arrested in Rome, Italian police said on Friday.

The man, who has been living in Italy, is accused of taking part in the attack in 2009 in which 134 died, including many women and children. He was held at Rome's Fiumicino airport after stepping off a flight from Pakistan.

Anti-terrorist police believe he also hid a "suspected suicide attacker who was supposed to carry out an attack" in Italy.
