Amir Jammat-e-Islami (JI), Azad Kashmir Sardar Ejaz Afzal and Secretary General Jhangir Khan left for London on Saturday to inquire about the health of Dr Muhammad Ayub Thakar, Leader of World Kashmir Freedom Movement. Dr Muhammad Ayub Thakar has been suffering from lung cancer since last month and is under treatment in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) in UK.
Earlier he was also taken to US for treatment after which his health was restored.
| Now it sounds like he's about to kick it... |
Before leaving for London, Mr Ejaz appointed Noorul Bari as Acting Amir JI (AJK) and appealed public to pray Almighty Allah for the health of sincere Leader of the Kashmir movement. However in the absence of Secretary General Muhammad Jhangir Khan, Sardar Abdul Halim will act as Secretary General of the party.
| Thakur's a money man, funneling the bucks into the Kashmir jihad machine. I won't miss him much, and I hope his departure from this vale of tears is very painful. |
Here's the background on that, from Thursday's Pak Tribune...
The forthcoming International Kashmir Conference is likely to be postponed as the organizer of the moot eminent Kashmiri leader Dr. Ayub Thakur has been admitted at a local hospital after he developed some respiratory problem. Dr. Thakur, who is also World Kashmir Freedom Movement President, was rushed to the hospital for treatment as he was feeling difficulties in his breathing and was shifted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) owing to seriousness of his ailment. There is no further update about his health till the last reports came in.
"What is it, Doctor?"
"Hmmmm... Looks like an embolism, only bigger!" |
The Movement spokesman said Dr. Thakur was busy in making arrangements for the Kashmir conference scheduled for February 28 –29 in London. The invitation cards for the conference have already been dispatched to the participants, especially the Kashmiri leaders from across the valley. |
