PTV shows militants
2006-11-04
PTV has telecast a report showing people being trained to carry out terrorist attacks and suicide bombings, at the madrassa in Bajaur that was raided recently. According to the PTV report, the madrassa was actually an arms training camp where training sessions were held in the night and early morning.

Photographs taken from infrared cameras showed that highly skilled experts were training men, according to the PTV report. The camp was run by Maulvi Faqir Muhammad and Maulvi Liaquat, and the trainees considered Bin Laden their leader, it said. Around 15 to 20 people were being initially trained at the camp, and their number then rose to about 100, it added. It said that there was proof these people were getting financial assistance from Al Qaeda and the Taliban. The madrassaÂ’s academic session had ended by Ramazan, but it remained open after Eid, which suggested that people were being trained there, it said.
