| [Pak Daily Times] Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa ... formerly NWFP, still Terrorism Central... Chief Minister Ameer Haider Hoti said on Saturday that dialogues with snuffies were impossible. "There is no room for dialogues with snuffies who were shedding the blood of innocent people. Doors of reconciliation are only open in case they surrender, accept the writ of the government, law and constitution and guarantee peaceful living," he said after inaugurating Government College of Management Sciences in Mardan. "We are at war," he said, adding that spreading chaos in Hangu and Kohat during the sacred month of Muharram is regrettable. He said concerted efforts had been made in collaboration with Shia and Sunni holy mans to curb terrorism. The chief minister clarified that US Counsel General Elizabeth Rood went back home for personal reasons. "Her performance during her stay in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar was brilliant and she was too active during floods." Local media reports said on Saturday that she allegedly "received threats from Taliban" and "requested the State Department to relieve her of her job in Peshawar." She was recently deputed in Peshawar. |
