the regional Government has arrested nearly 20 out of 33 people involved in the recent wave of sectarianism that left over 24 dead and scores of injured in GB. Nearly all the accused nominated in the Chilas violence have been arrested, while negotiations are underway for the arrest of perpetrators nominated in clashes in Nagar valley, said Deputy Superintendent of Police Ali Sher. Since the main mosques of Shias and Sunnis were sealed, the Government has also banned clerics from both sects from issuing statements to the media. In addition to that, the Government is debating whether to arrest Agha Rahat and Qazi Nisar, the top clerics representing the two sects, to ensure durable peace. However, the Government has been advised by political representatives to refrain from arresting them to avoid adding to their popularity among their followers. “The Government has been advised to bring the two to the negotiating table and convince them to sign an agreement drafted by officials,” an unnamed politician said. In an attempt to effect reconciliation between the two warring sects, the GB Government is planning to constitute a ‘Mosque Board’. Two central mosques, one each of Shia and Sunni sects, were sealed earlier, and the regional law minister, Wazir Shakeel, has confirmed that a Mosque Board was being constituted to mediate between them.

three German nationals were taken into custody for their alleged involvement in ‘suspicious activities’ from a house located in University Town of Peshawar, reports Dawn. The suspects, who were interviewed after reports they were living in the house on the Park Lane Street illegally, failed to produce documents validating their stay in Pakistan. They were identified as Curtain Wild, a colonel in German Army who has spent time in Afghanistan and Kosovo, Lauren and Rhodwolf Smith. An official said statements of the three men did not match with each other. First, they claimed to be associated with a non-governmental organisation but later they said they were staff of the German embassy living in Peshawar. The official said four Pakistanis, who were working for the Germans, had also been held. They included two security guards whose services had been acquired without informing the Police. “They said they were deputed by their embassy to keep an eye on the German-funded development projects but they had no documentary proof to this effect,” the official said. The Germans came to Peshawar during the Soviet war in Afghanistan more than 30 years ago, he said, adding the house was raided after the Police came to know about their suspicious activities.
