TTP warns against issuing identity cards to women
The banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) has warned the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) office in Khyber Agency against issuing National Identity Cards (NICs) to women, threatening to attack it otherwise. A private TV channel quoted TTP (Khyber Agency) chief Omar Farooq as saying women's NICs were against Islam, adding the Taliban would not allow women to obtain these cards. He also said the women going to NADRA offices for registration would be responsible for the consequences. Posted by: Fred 2009-03-09 |
