Al-Qaeda Hunt: Pakistan asks Tribes to Cage Suspects
By Zulf Khan Afridi - Pakistan Times Special Correspondent


WANA (South Waziristan): Political Administration of South Waziristan Agency Saturday warned all the three sub-tribes of Mehsud tribe to keep a close vigil on the activities of suspected tribesmen in their respective areas.

Strict Actions

The Political administration will take strict action against the tribe if any suspect found in their area. This was stated by Assistant Political Agent Ladha Naeem Anwar Saddozai while addressing a jirga of Mehsud and Barki tribes at Wana.

The APA said, since Kani garam tribe has its own force, therefore, it must concentrate on hilly areas for hunting the wanted tribesmen instead of urban localities. He said, anti social elements in tribal areas usually target the government installations during night.

Dire Consequences

Saddozai warned them of dire consequences if any rocket launcher was fired on government property in future. Therefore, it is in the interest of the tribesmen to maintain strict vigilance in their respective areas.

Meanwhile, DCO Tank Asmatullah in his address to a jirga of Bhittani tribe, directed them to be alerted for safeguarding and protection of government properties in the district which is bordering South Waziristan Agency.

Assurance

The tribal elder of Bhittani tribe Malik Haftay Khan assured the district administration of his full support and cooperation.

A joint jirga of Commandant Scouts Wana and Bhittani tribe will be held at Jandola on Sunday in which important decisions are expected to be taken with regard to maintenance of public order.
