| 2007-07-12 |
| About 90 female students of Jamia Hafsa chanted “Al Jihad, Al Jihad” when they were brought on Wednesday evening to the Pakistan Sports Complex (PSC). Sources said the security around the complex was tightened to an unprecedented level. The students were either arrested or had surrendered to the Rangers during the military operation against the Lal Masjid brigade. Sources said they were taken to PSC’s Iqbal Hostel in Jinnah Stadium from Adiala Jail or somewhere else in Islamabad. Punjab Constabulary policewomen had been deployed inside the rooms where the girls were kept while Rangers troops were guarding the sports complex, they added. Before the Lal Masjid standoff the girl students were seen brandishing sticks when they announced their anti-vice campaign. |
