Govt asked to expel foreigners from FATA
A religious organisation has asked the central government to flush out foreigners from the countrys Tribal Areas. Speaking at a news conference on Wednesday, the head of the Tanzeemul Mashaikh Ahle Sunnah Pir Shamsul Amin of Manki Sharif said foreigners were using the FATA to conspire against Islam. He alleged that the countrys intelligence agencies were involved in disturbing the security situation in FATA and demanded the government arrest those involved in the killing of the relatives of MNA Pir Noorul Haq Qadri. Four of Qadris close relatives were gunned down when their car was ambushed near the Takhta Baig check post in the Jamrud sub-division of Khyber Agency last month. Amin warned the media that situation could take a bloody turn if the government failed to stop the massacre of innocent people and religious scholars in the Tribal Areas. He said some elements were out to target prominent religious scholars through a well-planned strategy.Posted by: Fred 2008-06-05 |
