| 24 activists of religious parties arrested |
| 2002-05-10 |
| The police in a crackdown against the activists of religious parties in Dadu district arrested 24 activists of different parties on Thursday. A police party of Dadu town raided the houses of the senior vice president of a banned organization, Syed Fida Hussain Shah, the provincial deputy secretary of another banned organization, Najamuddin Mujahid, and arrested them. The police also arrested ten more activists of the two organizations in Dadu town. Interesting. Usually they name the organizations. Here they didn't... Khairpur Nathan Shah police arrested twelve activists ofthe JUI, including Abdul Aziz Khaskheli and Maulana Abu Bakar Chandio. And I'd imagine the JUI activists belong to JUI (F), Fazlur Rehman's group. The very bunch that's threatening civil war. Maybe it is a real crackdown... |
