Pakistan once again accused of creating unrest in Afghanistan
2006-06-21
(AIP): Chairman of National Reconciliation Commission, Professor Sibghatullah Mujaddidi on Tuesday once again accused Pakistan’s spy agency for unrest in Afghanistan and said it had been proved that Pakistani intelligence agencies sending people to Afghanistan for suicide attacks. This he said while addressing a meeting held here on Tuesday in connection with the joining of government by a commander from Zabul province. Professor Sibghatullah Mujaddidi who is also Chairman Senate said, “Pakistan’s ISI is the centre of all evils as it has been providing training to people and sending them to Afghanistan.” It has been proved to us that all the unrest in Afghanistan is due to Pakistani intelligence agencies because they area sending people for suicide attacks here, he added.

Mujadidi said several Taliban do not join government due to PakistanÂ’s fear. If they announce support to government then they area killed by Pakistan, he said. He termed suicide attacks as forbidden (Haram) in Islam. Chairman of National Reconciliation Commission informed the meeting that 1800 government opposed people have joined government due to efforts of the commission and 5000 elders have promised to cooperate in making the programme a success.

Commander Muhammad Ibrahim who joined the government also addressed the meeting and said, “I joined the government on my own sweet will.

Sibghatullah Mujaddidi leveled these allegations but Pakistan repeatly rejected these allegations. Similarly, pro-Taliban clerics termed suicide attacks as jehad agiasnt foreign forces in their decrees (Fetwa). However, there is no consensus among religious scholars on this issue. It is to be mentioned here that security situation did not improved despite the joining of government by 1800 anti-government people.
