Afghanistan behind unrest in Pakistan: says ISI

[ssheppard]

Pakistan's intelligence agency (ISI) says terrorists cross Afghanistan into their side, urging Kabul to do more to stop the border crossing by Taliban and al-Qaeda linked militants.

The drug mafia in Afghanistan is supporting terrorists who are creating unrest within Pakistan, the ISI chief, Ahmad Shuja Pasha said while giving a detailed briefing on new US policy on Afghanistan and issues relating to the country's national security during a Parliamentary committee meeting in Islamabad.

“Interference in Pakistan is being made through Afghanistan, and conspiracies are being hatched to destabilize Pakistan,” a Press TV correspondent quoted Pasha as saying late on Tuesday.

He said that anti-state elements in Afghanistan conspire to destabilize Pakistan and that through diplomatic and military means the matter has been taken up with the Afghan government.

Pasha's statement came as increased US pressure forms the backdrop of launching a parallel operation in North Waziristan.

According to reports, the committee members believe that the Pakistan-Afghan border should be fenced and movement across the border should be strictly monitored.

Drug mafia in Afghan supporting terror activities in Pak: ISI

slamabad: Afghanistan's soil is being used for "terror activities" in Pakistan and peace cannot be established in the country unless infiltration from across the Afghan border is stopped, Inter-Services Intelligence agency chief Lt Gen Ahmad Shuja Pasha said on Tuesday.

Pasha, while briefing the parliamentary committee on national security, said the "drug mafia in Afghanistan" is supporting terrorists who are creating unrest in Pakistan, the Dawn News channel reported.



The ISI chief's comments came against the backdrop of increasing US pressure on Pakistan to launch an operation against the Taliban in North Waziristan tribal region.

Several groups with close links to the Pakistani security establishment are active in the region. The Pakistan Army has refrained from taking action against these militant factions, reportedly because the security establishment considers them as "assets" who would be useful after US troops pull out of Afghanistan.

Members of the parliamentary committee on national security favoured fencing of the Pakistan-Afghanistan border and strictly monitoring movements across the frontier.

They also called for enhancing security along the border.

Senator Raza Rabbani, chairman of the parliamentary committee, told reporters after the meeting that the panel had condemned screening of Pakistani citizens under new security measures introduced by the US and described the move as "violation of international human rights declarations".

Afghan soil being used for terror activities in Pakistan

Parliamentary Committee of National Security has expressed grave concern over the newly-introduced screening process of Pakistanis at US airports and involvement of foreign elements in creating unrest in the country. Sources said that Director General, Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) Lt. Gen. Ahmed Shuja Pasha while briefing the committee about US new Afghan policy and its implication on Pakistan revealed that Afghan soil is being used for terrorist activities in Pakistan. He told that drugs smugglers have been supporting the terrorists, source added. Pasha also suggested the need that movement of terrorists on Pak-Afghan border should to monitor. He informed members of the committee that negotiations to tighten checking on bordering area between two countries were underway with all stakeholders. The committee members also suggested that Pakistan should be a key player in new Afghan policy. It also demanded to expel the name of Pakistan from policy of US new immigration list. Meanwhile Committee Chairman Raza Rabbani said US drone strikes on Pakistani soil was blatant violation of country's integrity and sovereignty. He said Foreign Ministry should raise the issue at diplomatic level. Later talking to media in Islamabad after the meeting of Parliamentary Committee of National Security, Raza Rabbani said that unnecessary screening of Pakistanis at US airports would be a serious violation of human rights. He said that continuous drone attacks on Pakistani territory took away the nation's self-respect, integrity and sovereignty which cannot be tolerated and the issue has been raised with US. He said that idea of fencing the Pak-Afghan border would be kept in mind while preparing the recommendations for national security. To a question about drone strikes Raza Rabbani said that government has lodged protest against US drone strikes diplomatically several times but no vain, however he maintained that incumbent government was committed to stop drone attacks.

You are acting like As there are no drug mafia in Afghanistan. The drug trade is facilitated through Afghanistan . Drugs are produced in Afghanistan and in huge quantity not Pakistan . Drug addicts are part of any society , this evil exits in every country, but that doesn't means you could use it as justification to prove your point .
The Afghan drug lords doesn't simply want to let go the fortune they earned under your hat . Now in order to protect their business even after you leave afghanistan they had to take steps and which is specifically to keep the PA busy with those rouge elements working on their payroll.
Drug business existed even before the US invasion but those guys didnt used their money to destabilize or to raise up anti Pakistan elements . Its now under your hat this whole scenario is taking place...!
