KARACHI, July 7: Prominent political leader Mairaj Mohammad Khan has deplored the terrorist attack on an Imambargah in Quetta and termed it a conspiracy to divide the people of Pakistan on religious and sectarian lines, to brand the country a terrorist state and destroy its ideological basis as enunciated by the Quaid-i-Azam.
In a statment, he also criticized the intelligence agencies for failing to check the growing trend of sectarian violence or bringing any of the real culprits to the book.
He alleged that these agencies, on whom billions of rupees were spent, purposely ignored serious incidents out of political expediency or they were actually involved, at the behest of external forces, in damaging Pakistan from within.
