Banned outfits using quake to fill coffers

Staff Report

PESHAWAR: Banned militant organisations are taking advantage of people’s sympathies with the earthquake victims by collecting donations for the “mujahideen” on the unofficial Eid day in Peshawar.

“Donate generously to the Jaish-e-Muhammad’s mujahideen,” a bearded young member of the organisation was heard shouting near Baghan-e-Naaran Park in Hayatabad.

Besides Jaish, other banned organisations operating with new names, like Jamatud Dawaa (formerly Lashkar-e-Taiba), also used the occasion to collect donations from the faithful. JD, which is on a government watch list, has been very active in collecting donations for the earthquake victims.

“What if the government has banned the Jaish. We are carrying out our mission,” a Jaish supporter told Daily Times, refusing to be named.

Their humanitarian work done during the Earthquake surely had a rationale as it is now surfacing.

They have also planned another assassination attempt on President Musharraf.

It is time that Musharraf get real hard on these chaps and gets rid of this cancer, which is not only has spread world wide, but is now threatening the very existence of Pakistan.

These outfits are retarding the progress Pakistan is making on many departments of governance.

Welcome to the world of terrorism economics, they just prove that they are human and business minded, after all why would they care if one person dies or a million dies, as long as they can wage their Jihad uniterrupted and follow their madness.

20 Pakistani children to get free treatment in India

NEW DELHI: India has offered free medical treatment to 20 Pakistani children. The scheme will be implemented through the Indian High Commission in Islamabad, an official spokesman told reporters here on Thursday. He said that so far 60 Pakistani children have received free medical treatment in India and “we are offering 20 more children to get free medical aid here”. Under the scheme, the Indian government pays the airfare and accommodation for the child and one guardian. Of the 60 children treated here in the last year, 48 were heart patients who were treated at Narayana Hrudayalaya Hospital, Bangalore, and Escorts Hospital, New Delhi. “It has enabled needy and seriously ill children in Pakistan to get quality medical treatment free of cost in India,” the spokesman said. iftikhar gilani




And we are the agressor?



Evil Hindus are the threat.

An interesting point of view.

However, it is rather sad that they are capitalising on human tragedy to fill up their coffers, having done some good work initially.

I am sure that this type of behaviour will get exposed as making capital out of a sad affair!

Dear Ray,
what good will exposing of such incidents do, this is nothing new. What diff would it make if some newspaper published a report or a news channel broadcasted a special report.

The fact remains that this problem would remain there, hence end result = Nothin.
