Allama Shaheedi demands Karachi be given under army control for NWA-like operation

Allama Amin Shaheedi has demanded of the government to give Karachi under the control of army and begin an operation like North Waziristan Agency (NWA)-like operation to eliminate the terrorists.

“Since the government has completely failed to shoulder its responsibility, military should be called in to protect citizens against the terrorist attacks,” he said talking to reporters after namaz-e-janaza of martyr Shia orator Ali Akbar Kumaili.

He urged the government either call in the military to eliminate the terrorists or quit accepting its failure in maintaining law and order in Karachi in particular. He said that some religious seminaries were turned into terrorist training centres. He said that Karachi’s district central became a sanctuary of political and militant Taliban.

“All patriot political forces should play their due role to help end the terrorism in Karachi. All should activate their cadres to play their active role in eradication of takfiri terrorism and fanaticism,” he urged.

Allama Shaheedi said that Shia notables and traders were being made targets because the terrorists saw government’s inaction as a green signal to them to continue Shia genocide.

“Karachi is backbone of Pakistan’s economy and aggravated law and order situation harms Pakistan very much. Government needs to adopt concrete and serious practical measures to ensure foolproof security, otherwise the terrorists will continue to challenge the writ of the State” he said.

MWM’s leader condoled with Allama Abbas Kumaili over the targeted murder of his son Ali Akbar Kumaili.
