JUI-F blames US for terrorist attacks
QUETTA, July 24: Leaders of the Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam (Fazl), Balochistan, on Thursday alleged that the United States was behind the terrorist attacks in the province and they were carried out to create misunderstanding between the sects to accomplish its designs in the region.
Speaking at a rally organized in front of the Jamia Masjid on Thursday to denounce terrorism, they warned Balochistan governor and corps commander against implicating Ulema in the attacks and ordering raids on the Madaris saying that the government would be responsible for the consequences.
National Assembly member Maulana Noor Mohammad presided over the gathering where Balochistan Information and Local Bodies Minister Hafiz Hussain Ahmed Sharody and MPAs Abdul Rahim and Maulvi Dur Mohammad also spoke.
“America toppled the Taliban government in Afghanistan, prepared ground to overthrow the regime in Iran and pushed Iraq into crises. Now a conspiracy has been hatched to create dissension between the Sunnis and Shias in Balochistan,” a speaker said.—Correspondent
