| New militant group 'raids' Landikotal hospital |
| 2008-07-25 |
| Armed supporters of Tehreek Islami Khyber, a new militant group, led by Gul Rehman Afridi 'raided' the Landikotal headquarters hospital on Thursday and called for the immediate removal of the "corrupt" medical superintendent (MS). They raised slogans against MS Dr Zar Alam Shinwari and Agency Surgeon Dr Zaman Khattak. "He (the MS) is ineligible and corrupt," Afridi alleged. He blamed Khattak for shifting the offices of agency surgeon staff to Jamrud. "The poor staff cannot afford to go to Jamrud," Afridi said. Shinwari, while talking to Daily Times, denied he had anything to do with the offices' relocation, saying it was the agency surgeon's job. |
