Militancy not possible without foreign funding: IG KP
IG Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Malik Naveed said on Wednesday that large scale militancy is not possible without foreign funding.
IG Malik Naveed said that the aim of the militants is to take over the government.
PESHAWAR: Inspector General of Police of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Malik Naveed said on Wednesday that large scale militancy is not possible without foreign funding.
Addressing a press conference in Peshawar, the IG said militants have their own agenda and want control over the government.
Speaking about the police, Naveed said the department is lacking resources. He also commented on the issue of some countries being concerned over Pakistan being an atomic power and over its ties with China.
Meanwhile South Waziristan commander Major General Nawaz said that militants have been eliminated from all areas of the agency.
Briefing the media in Dera Ismail Khan on Operation Rah-e-Nijat, Nawaz said the displaced people of South Waziristan will be resettled in a month. He assured full assistance for their repatriation and resettlement.
Nawaz gave these updates when he was in D I Khan to visit the IDP camps set up there for the displaced families of South Waziristan.

Why is the IGP Giving statements regarding international concerns of Pakistan – China nuclear cooperation?Recommend
He knows, they have lost it! especially since after the “Kichri” taking place in Afghanistan.Recommend
Why the IGP and others who acccuse foreign hands behind the militancy are shying away from naming these powers?Recommend
I totaly Agree with IGP.every one knows RAW,MOSSAD,RAMA AND CIA are fundng these TTP and BLA terrorist in pakistan,so they can destabilize pakistan so they will put pressure on pakistan to scarp it nuclear program.why pakistan govt is scared to point out finger to RAW,MOSSAD abd RAMA?Recent targ killing in Quetta and Karachi is done by Blackwater agents,which are MQM(Haqiqi) and BLA,LASHKARE JHINVI,JAISEH MOHAMED terrorist.to create civil war in pakstan.like they did in yugoslavia..why richrad halbrook keep coming to pakistan?usa will never be friends of muslims.giving aid and F-16 does not make usa honset.usa and india and afghnistan are back stabing us..so we need to take strong action and reveal india,afghan and israeli face to the world…Recommend
In Pakistan there is no justice or panishment for the terrorist or criminals thats why they control the crimes.Recommend
Shouldn’t such statements be given by the foreign office or the interior ministry, I am sure the IG is not aware of the impact on international diplomacy on giving such statementsRecommend
If one has a thinking mind, the IGP is saying a lot of things without saying much. Read between the lines and you too would reckon. May Allah have mercy on Pakistan and save it from the enemies within.Recommend
Could the IGP also transpire this information to the foreign office so that we can take up this issue of foreign assistance of militancy at United Nations. However there need to be concrete evidence as unlike us the UN does not fall for conspiracy theoriesRecommend
