FBI kidnapped missing engineer, says Jamaat
LAHORE: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) leaders said on Tuesday a Kashmiri engineer who has been missing for a month was kidnapped by the FBI and this was a âhumiliationâ for Pakistan.
"Engineer" is the Pak term for "explosives expert."
The engineer, Ahsan Aziz, was last seen at a mosque in Mirpur, Azad Kashmir. JI leaders Hafiz Muhammad Idrees, Dr Syed Waseem Akhtar and Azhar Iqbal Ahsan MPA said in a joint press statement they were angry and saddened by the FBIâs interference in the internal affairs of Pakistan. They said even mosques were no longer safe from the FBI.
Musta been the FBI. The guy couldnât possibly have been kidnapped and slaughtered by fellow Islamists. Itâs not like they canât control themselves when they get fired up. Not like they canât control their impulse to cut peopleâs heads off...
They said it was a matter of âdeep concernâ that the FBI has started operating at the base camp of the freedom movement in Azad Kashmir. The American agencyâs activities were a violation of human rights and an attempt to sabotage the Kashmir movement. They demanded the government prevent FBI agents from operating in Pakistan and take practical steps towards the recovery of Mr Aziz.
FBI guys, is it? Operating right there at the terrorist camps? Well, yeah. Iâd call that a violation of human rights if I had a turban...
