Leaders of the All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) on June 3 urged Kashmiris on both sides of the Line of Control (LoC) to draw up a joint plan to peacefully resolve the issue. They were addressing members of the Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) Council and PoK Legislative Assembly in Muzaffarabad, capital of PoK. Mirwaiz Omar Farooq said they have come to PoK with "solid proposals" for the solution of the Kashmir issue. He also said he wants to share these proposals with the leadership of PoK and Pakistan. "The issue will only be resolved after all the three major parties are included in the peace process," he claimed. Bilal Ghani Lone said Kashmiri leaders have committed mistakes and when people ask questions about it the leadership has no answers. "People are still with us in our struggle. But we need a better approach and strategy," Bilal said. Another Hurriyat leader, Abbas Ansari, said Kashmiris should be included in the peace talks. "Agreement should not be made on our blood. The real party concerned to the dispute is Kashmiris and they must be included in the talks," he is reported to have said.

The exclusion of Syed Ali Shah Geelani and Jehadi outfits from the ongoing peace process would not have any adverse effect on it, the visiting All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) delegation claimed on June 5. Hurriyat leaders, Maulana Abbas Ansari and Bilal Ghani Lone, told Daily Times that "individuals" who did not wish to support the peace process should come out of their belief that their absence would obstruct the process. Another APHC leader Abdul Ghani Bhatt also supported their point of view but said it would be better if Jehadi outfits were also involved in the dialogue process. "There are two types of people in our society – the people who represent the brighter side of a picture and the people who represent the darker side," Bhatt added.

The ongoing India-Pakistan peace process will not be affected by terrorist violence in Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf said in Canberra on June 14. Gen. Musharraf, speaking a day after a car bomb blast killed 16 persons in Kashmir, said nobody could stop the violence, which he vowed would not distract India and Pakistan from the peace process they have both described as irreversible. "I think we should not be overly bothered about (the car bombing) and we should not allow it to affect the peace process," the General told Reuters in an interview during the first visit by a Pakistani president to Australia. He also claimed he had a vision for self-governance for Kashmir but that independence for the region would be unacceptable to both Pakistan and India. "There is nobody who can exercise control on everyone and everything that is happening in Kashmir. I certainly don’t hold a whistle which I can blow and every bullet stops being fired," Musharraf later told Canberra’s National Press Club.

The Interior Minister, Aftab Khan Sherpao, said on June 23 that the Al Qaeda had established a strong nexus with outlawed extremist groups in Pakistan. "There is a nexus of Al Qaeda and extremist elements in Pakistan. Whenever they feel hurt, they react. But it will not decrease our resolve against terrorism," he told Daily Times in an interview on June 23. Without naming any organisation, the minister said outlawed groups were facilitating Al Qaeda operatives in Pakistan. Sherpao also refuted a recent Los Angeles Times report on the presence of scattered training camps countrywide, saying there were no such training facilities in Pakistan. "Terrorists don’t have to train a suicide bomber. They have people indoctrinated for such a type of job. So there are no training camps," he added. However, he did not deny the involvement of extremist groups in training people at secret locations.
