2011-11-04
[One Pakistan] Federal Interior Minister Rehman A. Malik said Pakistain will extend every possible help to Afghan government for the arrest of killers of former Afghanistan's Caped President Burhanuddin Rabbani
... the gentlemanly murdered legitimate president of Afghanistan...
. He said deadlock between Pakistain and Afghanistan has ended.

"Pakistain and Afghanistan will work together to monitor all movements through a border crossing by the end of the month", Malik told news hounds outside Parliament House Thursday.

He said there were cross-border terrorism allegations by the Afghanistan but during my visit to Chaman border I observed it was free-for-all.

Interior Minister has said skin collection sans permission is banned and skin collection mafia will be taken to task. He added that a biometric system would be installed at Pak-Afghan border on November 30 due to complaints about bully boyz crossing the border unchecked.

He claimed that now Afghanistan had also agreed to log movement on its side of the border. He said that the two countries had agreed to close down all unofficial tracks across the border except the established crossings at Chaman and Torkham.

Malik said he and his Afghan counterpart would hold monthly meetings to tackle the incursions and other border management problems.

Commenting on Cricket match fixing scandal, Interior Minister was of the view that if there was any conspiracy against cricketers, the government will defend them. And if they are involved in match fixing then they should be punished, he added. He expected the new Chairman PCB would handle the issues amicably.

Replying to a question, Malik revealed that 'Red warrants' will be issued through Interpol if Pervez Mussaraf's warrants are issued.
