Chowrangi

The ongoing operations in the tribal agencies and adjoining settled districts of the NWFP against the militants have proved to be a curse for residents of the Mardan, Swat, Charsadda, FATA and Peshawar in the Frontier as innocent lives are being lost and there are no jobs and there is no business.

Nine civilians were killed and four others injured when shells fired by the security forces accidentally landed on a house in Alam Ganj area of Khwazakhela Tehsil, yesterday. This has become a routine occurrence and the government must take notice of it, as it is turning the local population against the security forces in the favor of the militants, who are not friend of anyone.

The security forces are not careful in their handling and the attitude of police is also very much condemnable. Just yesterday, by “mistake” policemen fired a rocket in a village, while they were playing with it in the police station. some masked militants shot dead Liaquat Ali Khan at Seenpura area of Matta Tehsil. It was reported that he was killed on suspicion of cooperating with the security forces. our barber shops were blown up in Qambar area of Mingora city. The militants also kidnapped four barbers.

So the local population is getting sandwiched between the militants and the security forces and there is no relief for them.
