AJK govt bans 63 terrorist organisations
2015-04-03
[DAWN] The AJK government on Thursday issued a notification to ban the activities of 63 terrorist organizations under the National Action Plan (NAP).
In unrelated news, 63 terrorist organizations today changed their names...
In accordance with the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2014, the AJK Home Department issued the notification to ban 63 organizations within the jurisdiction of Kashmire including Al Qaeda, Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain, Laskhar-e-Taiba, Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistain
...a Sunni Deobandi organization, a formerly registered Pak political party, established in the early 1980s in Jhang by Maulana Haq Nawaz Jhangvi. Its stated goal is to oppose Shia influence in Pakistain. They're not too big on Brelvis, either. Or Christians. Or anybody else who's not them. The organization was banned in 2002 as a terrorist organization, but somehow it keeps ticking along, piling up the corpse counts...
and Lashkar-e-Jhangvi
... a 'more violent' offshoot of Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistain. LeJ's purpose in life is to murder anyone who's not of utmost religious purity, starting with Shiites but including Brelvis, Ahmadis, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Rosicrucians, and just about anyone else you can think of. They are currently a wholly-owned subsidiary of al-Qaeda ...
whereas the activities of Jamat-ud-Dawa will be under observation.

As per the notification, no individual is permitted to cooperate with these banned
...the word banned seems to have a different meaning in Pakistain than it does in most other places. Or maybe it simply lacks any meaning at all...

Senior police official, Faheem Ahmed Abbasi, said the ban will come into effect on May 1 under the NAP.

During a presser, DIG Yaseen Qureshi, SP Shafqat Tanveer -- along with other coppers -- said that under the NAP, a counter-terrorism department is being established which will recruit 500 highly trained personnel who will be equipped with modern weapons.

The Additional IG said an apex committee was formed in AJK and a 20-point agenda was set which will be implemented from May 1, adding that there will be no exceptions during this period.

In the wake of the deadly attack on 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.
's Army Public School on Dec 16, 2014, the government constituted the NAP.

In response to a question, the Additional IG said that the counter-terrorism department will form seven units from the 500 personnel who will be recruited.

Abbasi added that the 1861 Police Act is still being implemented in AJK, adding that it has been 12 years since the act in Punjab
1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard
2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers
3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots....

He said the police's legal structure needs to be fixed. On the other hand, Abbasi also noted that AJK's law and order situation and police performance is much better than other parts of the country.

He further said that NAP is of utmost importance and through its implementation, peace and order can be established. He also said that an action-packed initiative will be taken against banned organizations in AJK.
