| Govt has proof of terrorists training in Bajaur seminary: Sherpao |
| 2006-11-11 |
| Federal Interior Minister Aftab Ahmed Khan Sherpao said Friday that terrorists were being trained at the Bajaur seminary that was attacked late last month and that the government had ample proof of this claim. Supporting the military action in Bajaur, Sherpao said that those who died in the seminary during the air strike were terrorists and not innocent people. He added that the government was committed to eliminating terrorism in all its forms. He said that the writ of the state would be enforced at all costs and there would be no compromise in this regard. Sherpao further said that the government was ready to sign another peace accord with tribes in line with the previous Waziristan peace deal, adding that the government had the right to carry out military action if the deal was violated. Sherpao said that the MMA had used the “Afghan card” in the previous general elections and was now trying to exploit the Bajaur incident in the next general elections. He said this would not be allowed. In reply to a question, he said the present assemblies would complete their terms and the ruling party would win in the next general elections with a majority. |
