This is steeply outrageous and perpetual assaults against those Maseeds who want peace and tranquility in South Waziristan. If killing of peace loving elders isn't stopped then in near future we would be without any elder to withstand the tyranny imposed on us. But we will raise voice against deeply embedded social, political and economical maladies that has obstructed Waziristan from treading ahead consciously on prosperous track. The govt is requested to inspire full protection of peace loving people.
