Agencies behind Hafsa standoff: Fazl



By Our Correspondent


TANK: Leader of Opposition in the National Assembly and Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman has said that intelligence agencies are behind the establishment of Shariah court in Lal Masjid-Hafsa in Islamabad.

Speaking at a party meeting in Tank on Monday, he said that the entire show of the Hafsa Madressah was enacted by secret agencies as part of a conspiracy to defame seminaries in the country.

He said that all such conspiracies against madressahs would be foiled.

Maulana Fazl said that Ummah was facing critical time and Muslim rulers had closed their eyes to injustices, atrocities and bloodshed of Muslims in the world.

He said that the Muslim leaders had adopted this attitude mainly due to compromises of Muslim leaders to save their skin and prolong their rule.

He said that the country’s atmosphere was more conducive to political process rather than forcing people to take up arms and take the law into their hands.

He said that the law and order situation was created on purpose to defame the seminaries.

He said that the American occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq was not meant to end terrorism and restore peace to the countries, but it was meant to permanently occupy and grab natural resources of Central Asia and oil wealth of the Middle East.

The opposition leader said that the disturbance in tribal areas on the border with Afghanistan was pre-planned in order to provide an excuse to capitalist forces to interfere in the Afghan affairs.

He said that these forces had already devised a plan to divide the country into Northern and Southern Afghanistan.

He said that a former US president had said the geographical frontiers of developing countries were not final.

He said that the same capitalist forces had employed the same tactics in Bengal.
