Qazi not allowed to travel to Quetta
ISLAMABAD, Oct 26: The chief of Jamaat-i-Islami, Qazi Hussain Ahmed, was stopped by police at the Islamabad International Airport from boarding a flight to Quetta, where he was scheduled to lead a protest rally on Friday.
On arrival at the Islamabad airport at 10.15am, a police officer escorted him to a restaurant where he was shown government’s orders.
More than 200 JI activists, who were at the airport to welcome their leader, started shouting anti-government slogans and waving Jamaat’s flags.
Speaking to his workers Qazi said that America was the real terrorist who is killing innocent Afghan people.
But president Musharraf is supporting “terrorist America”, he said.
Qazi said, “Musharraf is an agent of the enemy who is waiting for the moment when civil war will erupt in the country. But we will not create unrest in our motherland.”
Qazi pledged that the people will get the president’s house in Islamabad vacated, because the rulers have signed the “death warrants” of the nation and the government has lost its integrity.
