 Interior Minister of the Obvious Hamid Nawaz said on Monday that President Pervez Musharraf, former federal ministers Aftab Ahmad Khan Sherpao and Amir Muqam and JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman were facing life threats from Al Qaeda.
| Anybody who's anyone gets threats on their lives from al-Qaeda, among others. It's a sign you've arrived socially. |
| Yeah, but not everybody gets their convoys and prayer meetings blowed up. Blowed up real good. |
About threats to former PM Benazir Bhutto, he said the government had informed Benazir about threats to her life. Hamid said the government was trying to meet the security requirements Benazir had asked for. He said progress had been made in investigations into the Charsadda suicide attack. He said the government was also providing security to former premiers Nawaz Sharif and Shaukat Aziz. |
