ISLAMABAD: Sector H-9 was in the spotlight on Friday after rumours spread that some people had written slogans in support of self-styled Islamic State (IS).
According to police sources, the slogans were written on the wall of an educational institution located near Excise and Taxation Office.
An official of Industrial Area police station, requesting anonymity, said people had contacted the police station, asking about slogans written in favour of the IS.
“At around 8pm an Anti-Terrorist Squad official came to the police station and asked about the wall-chalking,” he added.
However SHO Fayaz Shinwari told Dawn: “No one came to my office to inquire after the IS wall chalking nor am I aware of any one writing slogans in support of IS in the limits of Industrial Area police station.”

There are a lot of Madrassas in and around Islamabad where IS's obsession with displaying brutality and inhumanity on social media websites to get attention , is idolised, combine that with a lot of illegal Afghan refugees and Saudi funding, it becomes writing on the wall.

Wherever you go in Pakistan, you will find a sea of people. I wonder when and how such people go unnoticed.

This could also be some stupid students looking for some adventure. The media should not glorify such things by making it a news, this only promotes such behavior in society

Anyone with a spray paint and half a brain can write anything on a wall. This does not mean Islamabad has turned into Raqqah.

this is a big deal as the supporters of IS are trying to prepare public opinion for a notorious criminal and western puppet group trying to hijack Pakistan. This is should not happen. A sensible person should act before it's too late but I guess majority is lacking sensibility in Pakistani Govt.
