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.

The North West Frontier Province (NWFP) government on October 7 put the Jamaat-Ulema-e-Islam (JuI-F) Chief Maulana Fazlur Rahman under house arrest for more than 12 hours to prevent him from proceeding to Multan to lead an anti-US rally. Pakistani news reports indicated that he was put under house arrest and directed not to leave his residence in his native village Abdul Khel in Dera Ismail Khan. Restrictions on his movement were later withdrawn. Commenting on his arrest, Fazlur Rehman said, "This reflects the government's nervousness. Our public meetings upset General Musharraf as these are spreading to the biggest province Punjab." The house arrest sparked unrest among his followers resulting in protest demonstrations in Peshawar. Hundreds of JuI-F activists assembled at the Madni Mosque at Namakmandhi and were addressed by party leaders. Some of the speakers indicated that the anticipated US attack would be met with retaliation and they would destroy all churches and temples in the region. They also stated, if the government banned their demonstrations on roads they would go underground and launch a massive attack against US interests. The leaders also added that if the day government allowed the US to use its territory against the Taliban, it would be the ‘last day’ of Gen. Musharraf’s regime.
