Pakistani news reports have indicated that approximately 300 activists of the Jamaat-e-Islam (JeI) were arrested on October 22 across Sindh in the wake of the Jacobabad protest. According to JeI sources, their Chief Qazi Hussain Ahmed was reportedly off loaded at the Lahore Airport while many other leaders were arrested from Sukkur Airport. Later, Qazi while addressing press personnel at the airport said that the government's decision to hand over the country's strategic installations and to suppress the popular public movement was a conspiracy against national security, violation of fundamental rights and a move to implement the US agenda. He claimed that the US had come to the region with long-term plans and wanted to harm Pakistan-China friendship, occupy oil and gas resources of Central Asia and also impose NATO 's hegemony over the entire region. According to him, "It is Pervez Musharraf who has provided a way to the US to be here." Meanwhile, Qazi has challenged the ban on his entry into Sindh in Supreme Court.
