PAT to set up 'condolence camps'
[DAWN] Despite administrative and police threats, the Pakistain Awami Tehrik (PAT) and Tehrik Minhajul Koran will establish 10 camps in various areas of the garrison city on Thursday to welcome Dr Tahirul Qadri...Pak politician, founder and head of Tehreek-e-Minhajul Quran. He usually resides in Canada, but returns to Pakistain periodically to foam at the mouth and lead demonstrations. Depending on which way the wind's blowing, Qadri claims to be the author of Pak's blasphemy law. Other times he says it wasn't him... at Benazir Bhutto ... 11th Prime Minister of Pakistain in two non-consecutive terms from 1988 until 1990 and 1993 until 1996. She was the daughter of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, founder of the Pakistain People's Party, who was murdered at the instigation of General Ayub Khan. She was murdered in her turn by person or persons unknown while campaigning in late 2007. Suspects include, to note just a few, Baitullah Mehsud, General Pervez Musharraf, the ISI, al-Qaeda in Pakistain, and her husband, Asif Ali Zardari, who shows remarkably little curiosity about who done her in... International Airport (BBIA). The camps, titled 'condolence camps' will be set up at Tench Bhatta, Pirwadhai, Khanna Bridge, Kuri Road, Adiala Road, Dhoke Ratta, Morgah, Sir Syed Chowk, Dhoke Chiraghdin and Golra Mor. PAT Rawalpindi spokesperson Suhail Abbasi told Dawn that these camps were being established to receive condolences for the tragic incident in Model Town where more than 11 civilians bit the dust. "The local administration and police are terrorising our people. Our leaders have received messages from the police asking them to submit plans to the relevant cop shoppes or the City Police Office," he added. He said: "The police have sought information on those attending the welcome reception at BBIA and their families." "We will not give details to the police as we are independent citizens and have the right to express ourselves. Rallies and public meetings are democratic and a basic civil right," he said. He added that the rally will go from Rawalpindi to Lahore and will be led by Dr Tahirul Qadri. Posted by: Fred 2014-06-20 |
