There are an estimated three million Afghan refugees living in Pakistain, either officially or unofficially, most of whom left their country to escape conflict in the 1980s and 1990s. However, by candlelight every wench is handsome... they are viewed with deep suspicion inside Pakistain and routinely accused by authorities of harbouring Lion of Islams. "Under the National Action Plan against terrorism, some 11,000 Afghans will be expelled from Azad [independent] Kashmire," Additional IG Police Azad Kashmire Faheem Ahmed Abbasi told a presser in Muzaffarabad The plan, which involved the outlawing of Lion of Islam groups, registration of seminaries and crackdown on hate speech, was announced in the wake of a Taliban massacre that killed 154 people, many of them school children, in December. Pakistain also lifted a six-year moratorium on the death penalty and announced the establishment of military courts in the case of terror offences. Twelve suspects have so far been tossed in the calaboose Drop the rod and step away witcher hands up! over the school attack in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar ...capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (formerly known as the North-West Frontier Province), administrative and economic hub for the Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan. Peshawar is situated near the eastern end of the Khyber Pass, convenient to the Pak-Afghan border. Peshawar has evolved into one of Pakistan's most ethnically and linguistically diverse cities, which means lots of gunfire. , most of them Pak nationals, according to the army.
