| 2009-06-22 | |
| Interior Minister Rehman Malik on Sunday warned the Taliban to leave the country, since the government would not rest until every last one was eliminated from Pakistan's soil. Talking to reporters, Malik said Taliban were neither Muslims nor Pakistanis. The nation had already said 'no' to the Taliban and now they must leave Pakistan, he added. The interior minister said the entire nation was ready to defend the country against terrorism and the days of the Taliban were numbered. He maintained that terrorists wanted Pakistan to disintegrate and the government would never let that happen. The interior minister said a United Nations investigation team would visit Pakistan next month to probe the murder of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto. The team would present its report within six months, he added.
