Lashkar-e-Islam (LI) chief Mangal Bagh has asked the Peshawar administration to close down all cinemas in the city. “We will [ourselves] take action to close down cinemas,” Bagh said in his address on an illegal FM radio station on Thursday night, according to residents. However, they said the LI chief did not set a deadline for the closure of these cinemas. Bagh uses his illegal FM radio station to issue warnings to his rivals in Khyber Agency. No LI representative was available to confirm Bagh’s Thursday address. |
