| [DAWN] PERHAPS it was a camera and microphone too many for the voluble interior minister. After avoiding controversy and speaking relatively forthrightly in his many engagements in the US, Interior Minister Nisar Ali Khan has ended his trip on a most peculiar note. He told the media that Abdul Aziz, the Death Eater leader of Lal Masjid ...literally the Red Mosque, located in Islamabad and frequented by all sorts of high govt officials. The proprietors, Ghazi Abdul Rasheed and Maulana Abdul Aziz Ghazi, unleashed their Islamic storm troopers on the city, shutting down whorehouses and beating people up who weren't devout enough. The Musharraf govt put an end to the nonsense by besieging the place. Abdul Aziz Ghazi was nabbed while he was trying to escape dressed up like a girl. BBC reported that the corpse count at 173, but other claims, usually hysterical, say there were up to 1000 titzup. Among their number was Abdul Rashid Ghazi. Everyone then said tut-tut and what a nice guy he had been... in Islamabad, has submitted a written apology to the capital police for his implied defence of the Dec 16 school attack in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar |
