Karachi peace: PML-N, JUI-F for action against militant wings
[Dawn] The Pakistain Moslem League-Nawaz has called for action against turban wings of political parties presently part of the ruling alliance and the call has been seconded by the Jamaat Ulema Islam-Fazl, another major opposition party in the parliament.

Recalling that the Supreme Court had in its judgment on Bloody Karachi
...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It may be the largest city in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous...
law and order case sought elimination of turban wings of political parties in the port city, PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif
... served two non-consecutive terms as prime minister, heads the Pakistain Moslem League (Nawaz). Noted for his spectacular corruption, the 1998 Pak nuclear test, border war with India, and for being tossed by General Musharraf...
has demanded that the People's Party government should disband its own turban wing and of its coalition partners.

"Peace and law and order cannot be restored to the port city as long as turban wings of the PPP and its allied parties exist," he told news hounds here on Monday.

Responding to a question about Federal Minister Khurshid Shah's statement regarding operation in Bloody Karachi, he said Mr Shah must talk to his (PPP) government for the operation as the minister was part of the government and not the opposition.

"Everyday a statement is issued instead of apprehending the culprits," he said, criticizing the administration for doing lip service instead of taking practical steps for tackling the menace of terrorism.

Nawaz was prime minister in June 1992 when Operation Clean-up (also known as Operation Blue Fox) had been launched in Bloody Karachi. The period is known as the bloodiest time in the history of Bloody Karachi.

He regretted that terror incidents were taking place daily but the government was failing to arrest the accused.
