Burying women alive not part of Pashtun traditions: ANP
2008-09-03
Awami National Party (ANP)'s working committee member Gul Mina Bilal has said that burying women alive was not part of the Pakhtun traditions.
"No, no! We always kill 'em first!"
Addressing a seminar at a local hotel on Tuesday, she said the religion Islam also did not allow such inhuman acts. Condemning the incident of burying five women alive in Babakot village of Balochistan, she said case should be registered against those responsible under the anti-terrorism act. She said the present ANP government has given confidence to the investors many of whom have expressed willingness to invest in the province. She said airline services of Australia and Germany, who had stopped flights to Peshawar after 9/11, would re-launch their flights soon. She said the provincial government was striving to overcome poverty, unemployment and price hike. She said the World Bank has shown willingness to provide loan to NWFP while their team is expected to reach Peshawar next week.
