PESHAWAR – Authorities in the North Western Frontier Province (NWFP)
have launched a major crackdown on Afghans serving as prayer leaders
on charges of provoking people against Pakistani and US governments in
their sermons.
"There are certain reports regarding their involvement in different
subversive activities, including provocation," NWFP police chief Malik
Naveed Khan told IslamOnline.net.
"That is why this action is being taken against them."
The local authorities decided to deport some 400 Afghans serving as
prayer leaders in the NWFP province and the adjoining tribal areas.
Police confirmed having arrested 43 of them from Peshawar, Swat,
Mardan, Boner and Noshehra districts.
