| [DAWN] ISLAMABAD: The inquiry commission on the Aug 8 Quetta carnage has called for banning terrorist organizations without any delay by enforcing the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) in letter and spirit. Terrorist organizations must not be permitted to hold meetings and people must be informed about the reasons for banning such organizations, said the Justice Qazi Faez Isa-led commission in its 110-page inquiry report submitted to a three-judge Supreme Court bench headed by Chief Justice Anwar Zaheer Jamali on Thursday. The commission was formed by the Supreme Court on Oct 6 to investigate the Aug 8 suicide kaboom on Quetta’s Civil Hospital in which at least 74 people, mostly lawyers, had bit the dust. |
