Repatriation: 1,636 IDPs to return home

IDPs from Waliabad have also started returning to their hometowns

MOHMAND AGENCY: IDPs from Waliabad have started returning to their hometowns after security forces successfully repulsed the militants’ attacks, while 1,636 IDPs from Ali Nagaar and Kuz Chamar Kand will return from Nakhee camp today. This was stated by Mohmand Agency Political Agent Amjad Ali Khan on Monday. Khan claimed that 97 per cent of the agency has been cleared of anti-state elements, while the remaining area will also be secured. He felt that the Afghan government and Nato have failed to monitor the infiltration of militants into various parts of the region, including Mohmand Agency, Dir, Chitral and Bajaur Agency, where militants are attacking innocent Pakistanis.
