Its predecessor, the party (Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan), strongly opposed the independence of Bangladesh and break-up of Pakistan. In 1971, paramilitary forces associated with the party collaborated with the Pakistan Army in mass killings of Bangladeshi nationalists and pro-intellectuals.[14][15][16][17][18][19][20]

Upon the independence of Bangladesh in 1971, the new government banned Jamaat-e-Islami from political participation since the government was secular and some of its leaders went into exile in Pakistan. Following the assassination of the first president and the military coup in 1975, the ban on the Jamaat was lifted and the new party Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh was formed. Exiled leaders were allowed to return. Abbas Ali Khan was the acting Amir of Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh. The Jamaat agenda is the creation of an "Islamic state" with the Sha'ria legal system, and outlawing "un-Islamic" practices and laws. For this reason, it interpretes their central political concept "Iqamat-e-Deen" as establishing Islamic state by possession of state power

Upon the independence of Bangladesh in 1971, the new government banned Jamaat-e-Islami from political participation since the government was secular and some of its leaders went into exile in Pakistan. Following the assassination of the first president and the military coup in 1975, the ban on the Jamaat was lifted and the new party Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh was formed.

[...] In 2010 the government, led by the Awami League, began prosecution of war crimes committed during the 1971 war under the International Crimes Tribunal. By 2012, two leaders of the BNP, one leader from Jatiyo Party and eight of Jamaat had been charged with war crimes, and by March 2013, three Jamaat leaders had been convicted of crimes. In response, the Jamaat held major strikes and protests across the country, which led to more than 60 deaths (mostly by security forces.)

The former leader of Jamaat-e-Islami, Bangladesh's largest Islamist party, was sentenced to 90 years in jail for crimes against humanity on 15 July 2013. [...]

In 1973, the government cancelled his citizenship for allegedly co-operating with Pakistani forces during the independence war.

Azam lived as an exile in Pakistan and the UK but returned to Bangladesh in 1978 when the country was led by Gen Ziaur Rahman - the assassinated husband of the country's current opposition leader [of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party] Khaleda Zia.

Minority community leaders, rights activists and liberal personalities have raised concerns over the call by acting chief of Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) Tarique Rahman, who stands convicted in a number of cases, for party men to mobilise on the streets for "regime change" on 28 October [2023].

[...] Rana Dasgupta said, considering the violent attacks orchestrated by BNP in the past, "this latest threat by Tarique is deeply concerning for the minorities in Bangladesh".

"Any political party that complies with the basic tenets of democracy should refrain from issuing such threats publicly," Dasgupta, general secretary of Bangladesh Hindu Buddhist Christian Oikya Parishad, added.

In the run-up to the 2014 national election, violence on the streets coupled with targeted attacks on minorities across the country still traumatise the victims, he observed

[ad_1] Salman Khan reportedly received another threat from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, which demanded that the Bollywood actor should either visit a temple and apologise for allegedly killing a black buck or pay ₹5 crore. The Mumbai Police Traffic Control unit received a message on Monday from an individual claiming to be gangster Lawrence Bishnoi’s brother, threatening that Salman Khan would be killed if he failed to comply with certain demands. “If Salman Khan wants to stay alive, he should go to our (Bishnoi community) temple and apologise or pay ₹5 crore. If he does not do so, we will kill him; our gang is still active,” the message said. The Police are probing the origin of the threat message and have beefed up security measures for Salman Khan, sources said, adding police are also checking if the message is linked to Lawrence Bishnoi, who is in jail on various charges, including attempted murder and extortion. “In the case of a threat to Actor Salman Khan, the process of registering the case is underway at Worli Police Station. The number from which the message came is being traced,” news agency ANI quoted the Mumbai Police as saying. Past death threats received by Salman Khan Last month, the Bollywood superstar received a death threat along with demand to pay up ₹2 crore, prompting police to launch a probe and arrest a resident of Mumbai’s Bandra on October 30. The Mumbai Traffic Police October 29 received an anonymous message wherein the sender threatened to kill the 58-year-old actor if he did not pay up ₹2 crore. The Worli police registered a case against the unidentified person and launched an investigation. The next day, the police arrested a man, identified as Azam Mohammed Mustafa, a resident of Bandra (East), for allegedly issuing the latest death threat to Salman Khan and demanding ₹2 crore from him. Salman Khan resides at Galaxy Apartments in Bandra (West), a posh locality of Mumbai, where two motorbike-borne assailants had opened fire in April. Last month, the Mumbai traffic police’s WhatsApp helpline desk had received a threat message demanding ₹5 crore from the actor. The police had then arrested a man from Jamshedpur in Jharkhand in connection with the threat message. In another case last month, the Mumbai Police arrested a man from Noida in Uttar Pradesh for allegedly issuing a death threat to Salman Khan and NCP leader Zeeshan Siddique, whose father Baba Siddique, was shot dead by three gunmen on October 12 in Bandra (East). Notably, Salman Khan had earlier received death threats from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. Suspected members of the dreaded gang had opened fire outside the actor’s Bandra home in April this year. A few months back, the Navi Mumbai police uncovered a plot by the Bishnoi gang to kill Salman Khan after which his security was stepped up. [ad_2] Source link

AFG vs PAK : Afghanistan’s Thrilling Victory Over Pakistan in World Cup 2023

Afghanistan Secures 8-Wicket Victory Over Pakistan

Afghanistan stunned Pakistan by eight wickets on Monday, pulling off their second huge upset of the Cricket World Cup.

Afghanistan, needing to win by chasing 283 runs, reached their goal with six balls remaining thanks to strong efforts from captain Hashmatullah Shahidi (48 not out), Rahmat Shah (77 not out), Ibrahim Zadran (87), and Rahmanullah Gurbaz (65).

Pakistan and Afghanistan, who earlier in the tournament surprised the defending winners England, each had three losses and two victories from their five group matches.

Pakistani batsmen Shadab Khan and Iftikhar Ahmed hit two huge boundaries in the last overs to increase their team’s score to 282/7 after 50 overs, ensuring a strong finish for their side. Although Noor Ahmad took three vital wickets to disrupt Pakistan’s batting line, Afghanistan’s pacers did not perform well.

Noor Ahmad Shines with Three Crucial Wickets

As he claimed his third wicket of the day, Noor Ahmad continued to show off his excellent bowling by dismissing Pakistani captain Babar Azam. When Babar Azam was removed by Noor Ahmad in the game’s last overs, he was attempting to accelerate the run rate.

Today, Mohammad Nabi bowled well, dismissing Saud Shakeel. Now that vice captain Shadab Khan has joined Babar Azam at the wicket, Pakistan appears to be in serious danger. Afghanistan will try to take advantage of this unrest.

Noor Ahmad clinched two wickets and dismissed Abdullah Shafique and Muhammad Rizwan to disrupt Pakistan batting. Saud Shakeel and Babar Azam are on crease now, trying to bring some stability for Pakistan.

Pakistan openers Imam-ul-Haq and Abdullah Shafique played in a good partnership but pacer Azmatullah Omarzai provided Afghanistan with first breakthrough as he dismissed Imam-ul-Haq and Pakistan skipper Babar Azam walked to the crease.

Pakistan’s Batting Woes and Afghanistan’s Spin 

Pakistan’s batting has not had the option to match the elevated assumptions that players like as Iftikhar Ahmed, Mohammed Rizwan, and Babar Azam set. This World Cup, the top batsman on the planet, has not exactly satisfied hopes.

Pakistan’s center request batsmen have endured against turn bowling, which has exacerbated the situation, as shown by their exhibitions against Australia and India.

The spin trio of Rashid Khan, Mohammad Nabi, and Mujeeb Ur Rahman, on the other hand, provides Afghanistan with a strong bowling lineup that can fully exploit the Chepauk conditions. If the Afghans hope to advance to the ICC World Cup 2023 semifinals, they will need to see a strong showing from their batsmen.

ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan’s former Prime Minister Imran Khan was arrested and dragged from court Tuesday as he appeared to face charges in multiple graft cases, a dramatic escalation of political tensions that sparked violent demonstrations by his angry supporters across the country.

The arrest of Khan, who was ousted in a no-confidence vote in April 2022 but remains the leading opposition figure, represented the latest confrontation to roil Pakistan, which has seen former prime ministers arrested over the years and interventions by its powerful military.

At least one person was reported killed in clashes between protesters and the military in Quetta, the capital of Baluchistan province, with another five people wounded there, while about 15 injuries were reported amid similar violence in Karachi, Peshawar, Rawalpindi and Lahore. Police fired tear gas to disperse demonstrations.

Amid the violence, officials at Pakistan’s telecommunication authority said regulators blocked social media, including Twitter, and internet service was suspended in the capital of Islamabad and other cities. Classes at some private schools were canceled for Wednesday.

Khan was removed from the Islamabad High Court by security agents from the National Accountability Bureau, said Fawad Chaudhry, a senior official with his Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party, and then shoved into an armored car and whisked away.

Chaudhry denounced the arrest of the 71-year-old former cricket star as “an abduction.” Pakistan’s independent GEO TV broadcast video of Khan being hauled away.

A scuffle broke out between Khan’s supporters and police outside the court. Some of Khan’s lawyers and supporters were injured in the melee, as were several police, Chaudhry said.

Khan was taken to the garrison city of Rawalpindi, near Islamabad, for questioning at the offices of the National Accountability Bureau, according to police and government officials. He also was to undergo a routine medical checkup, police said.

Khan had arrived at the Islamabad High Court from nearby Lahore, where he lives, to face charges in the graft cases.

He has denounced the cases against him, which include terrorism charges, as a politically motivated plot by his successor, Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, saying his ouster was illegal and a Western conspiracy. Khan has campaigned against Sharif and demanded early elections.

Tuesday’s arrest was based on a new warrant from the National Accountability Bureau obtained last week in a separate graft case for which Khan had not been granted bail. His lawyers challenged the legality of the arrest, but the court upheld it, although it added that Khan should not have been forcibly removed from the courtroom. Khan is scheduled to appear at an anti-graft tribunal on Wednesday, officials said.

“Imran Khan has been arrested because he was being sought in a graft case,” Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah Khan told a news conference. He alleged Pakistan’s treasury had lost millions of dollars while Khan was in office due to illegal purchases of lands from a business tycoon.

The National Accountability Bureau is Pakistan’s powerful anti-corruption organization that has detained and investigated former officials, including prime ministers, politicians and retired military officers. But some view the NAB as a tool used by those in power, especially the military, to crack down on political opponents. When Khan was in power, his government arrested Sharif, then the opposition leader, through the NAB.

At a news conference, Law Minister Azam Tarar said Khan was arrested because he was not cooperating with the investigations. He also denounced the violence by Khan supporters, saying that protests must remain peaceful.

“It should have not happened,” he said, shortly after TV video emerged of burning vehicles and damaged public property in parts of the country.

Authorities said they have banned rallies in the eastern province of Punjab.

As the news of the arrest spread, about 4,000 of Khan’s supporters stormed the official residence of the top regional commander in Lahore, smashing windows and doors, damaging furniture and staging a sit-in as troops there retreated to avoid violence. The protesters also burned police vehicles and blocked key roads.

Protesters also smashed the main gate of the army’s headquarters in the garrison city of Rawalpindi, where troops exercised restraint. Hundreds of demonstrators shouted pro-Khan slogans as they moved toward the sprawling building.

In the port city of Karachi, police swung batons and fired tear gas to disperse hundreds of Khan supporters who had gathered on a key road.

Raoof Hasan, another leader from Khan’s party, told Al Jazeera English television that the arrest is “blatant interference in the judicial affairs by the powers-that-be.” Hasan added that Khan “was virtually abducted from the court of law.”

Khan’s arrest came hours after he issued a video message before heading to Islamabad, saying he was “mentally prepared” for arrest there.

Khan was wounded by a gunman at a rally in November, an attack that killed one of his supporters and wounded 13. He has insisted, without offering any evidence, that there is a plot to assassinate him, alleging that Pakistan’s spy agency was behind the conspiracy. The gunman was immediately arrested and police later released a video of him in custody, allegedly saying he had acted alone.

In a strongly worded statement Monday, the military accused Khan of “fabricated and malicious allegations” of its involvement in the November shooting, saying they are “extremely unfortunate, deplorable and unacceptable.”

The military has directly ruled Pakistan for more than half of the 75 years since the country gained independence from British colonial rule, and wields considerable power over civilian governments.

Sharif, whose government faces spiraling economic woes and is struggling to recover from last year’s devastating floods that killed hundreds and caused $30 billion in damage, slammed Khan for assailing the military.

“Let this be abundantly clear that you, as former prime minister, currently on trial for corruption, are claiming legitimacy to overturn the legal and political system,” Sharif tweeted after Khan’s arrest.

In a statement, the European Union urged “restraint and cool headedness” in the country, through dialogue and the rule of law.

In Washington, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and British Foreign Secretary James Cleverly both said at a news conference they were aware of reports about Khan’s arrest but declined any substantive comment. “We just want to make sure that whatever happens in Pakistan is consistent with the rule of law, with the constitution,” Blinken said.

Cleverly said he had not been briefed in detail but added, “The U.K. has a longstanding and close relationship with Pakistan. We are Commonwealth partners. We want to see peaceful democracy in that country. We want ot see the rule of law adhered to. I’m uncomfortable to speculate further without having a detailed briefing on that.”

Khan is the seventh former prime minister to be arrested in Pakistan. Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was arrested and hanged in 1979. The current prime minister’s brother, Nawaz Sharif, who also served as prime minister, was arrested several times on corruption al

legations.

In March, police stormed Khan’s Lahore residence, seeking to arrest him based on a court order in a different case. Dozens of people, including police, were injured in ensuing clashes. Khan was not arrested at the time and later obtained bail in the case.

Khan came to power in 2018 after winning parliamentary elections and had initially good relations with the military which gradually soured.

Pakistani police say electrical short circuit caused deadly blasts in Swat Valley; rule out terror angle

The blast occurred on Monday at the Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) of the Kabal police station in Swat Valley in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.

PESHAWAR: Pakistani police on Tuesday ruled out a terror angle in the twin blasts which ripped through a counterterrorism facility in the country’s restive northwest on Monday that killed at least 17 people and injured 70 others, saying the explosions were caused by an electrical short-circuit.

The blast occurred on Monday at the Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) of the Kabal police station in Swat Valley in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.

Those killed in the blast included a girl child, 12 policemen and four detained prisoners, Deputy Inspector General (DIG) CTD Khalid Suhail said Refuting initial claims of a suicide attack, Suhail said that arms and ammunition were stored in the CTD police station, and an explosion in the armoury likely caused the blasts.

“There was a store where we had a huge quantity of weapons, and until now, we believe that there might have been some blast in it due to some carelessness,” Geo News quoted Suhail as saying.

An initial investigation by the police suggested that the primary reason behind the two explosions was a short circuit in the ammunition depot, Geo News reported.

“No evidence of an attack from outside has been found,” the preliminary investigation report said.

“There is a high possibility that the blast was caused by a short circuit as fire erupted in the armoury,” the police report said.

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Akhtar Hayat, ruling out the possibility of a terror act, said that the explosion might have been caused by an explosion of arms inside the police station.

The task to remove the debris is underway as nearby buildings, including mosques, houses, school walls, and roofs also collapsed due to the explosion, the report said.

Sohail said the shock waves caused “the complete collapse of the building”.

Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah condemned the blast and expressed sadness over the lives lost.

“This scourge of terrorism will be uprooted soon,” he asserted.

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Caretaker Chief Minister Muhammad Azam Khan also strongly condemned the blast and ordered a probe into the incident.

The latest attack comes as Pakistan faces a rise in terrorism incidents, with militants targeting law enforcers in their new offensive.

Security agencies have also ramped up operations against the terrorists.

Shadab Khan is ready for Pakistan captaincy: Hasan Ali names Babar Azam's replacement

Pakistan pacer Hasan Ali reckons that Islamabad United captain Shadab Khan is ready to lead Pakistan. When asked if Shadab could lead the national team, the pacer stated that the Islamabad United skipper is always ready to take on any challenge.

Babar Azam's captaincy has come under the scanner and faced criticism after Pakistan failed to win a single Test at home against England and New Zealand under his leadership. New Zealand then defeated Pakistan in the recently concluded ODI series, adding more pressure on Babar.

"He is ready [for the Pakistan captaincy]. He has proved himself as a captain in PSL. I think he has also led Pakistan in two matches, so I think he is ready. He is always ready for any challenge and gives his best," Hasan said when he was asked to share his thoughts on Shadab as the next Pakistan captain.

Hasan and Shadab both play for Islamabad United in the Pakistan Super League (PSL), with the latter leading the team since 2019. Shadab is also Pakistan's limited overs vice-captain, but Shan Masood replaced him for the New Zealand series, which the spinner missed due to injury.

Shadab has led Islamabad 32 times, with the team winning 17 and losing 15. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is rumoured to be considering splitting the leadership role and potentially replacing Azam as captain in one of the formats.

Shadab is Pakistan's vice-captain in limited-overs cricket. However, due to injury, he missed the recent ODI series against New Zealand, and Shan Masood was named vice-captain for that series. Azam will captain the Peshawar Zalmi in the Pakistan Super League (PSL).

The latest PSL season began on Monday, with Lahore Qalandars defeating Multan Sultans by one run in the season opener. The match also marked Shaheen Shah Afridi's return to competitive cricket after being sidelined for several months due to a knee injury. Read More On...

[ad_1] Babar scored his last fifty in 2022. (PC: X.com) In a surprising move, the newly formed selection committee of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to omit senior players Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi, and Naseem Shah from the 16-member squad for the final two Tests of the ongoing three-match series against England. Babar has been under scrutiny for some time, having failed to score a half-century in Test cricket since December 2022. His struggles were highlighted after twin failures in the high-scoring first Test in Multan, where he managed just 30 and 5. Following advice from the selection committee, Babar was dropped. The other two notable omissions, Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah, also struggled on the flat Multan pitch, which contributed to their exclusion. All three players have had a disappointing year. Babar averages just 18.5 in 2024 and hasn’t scored a fifty in his last 18 Test innings, while Shaheen and Naseem have averaged 72 and 51 with the ball, respectively, this year. The PCB, however, stated in an official announcement that the players have been ‘rested.’ “Taking into consideration the current form and fitness of key players and looking ahead to Pakistan’s future assignments in the 2024-25 international cricket season, the selectors have decided to rest Babar Azam, Naseem Shah, Sarfaraz Ahmed, and Shaheen Shah Afridi. Abrar Ahmed, who is recovering from dengue fever, was unavailable for selection,” the PCB said in a media release. Mohammad Ali, Noman Ali, Sajid Khan, and Zahid Mehmood have been included in the squad, alongside uncapped left-arm spinner Mehran Mumtaz and wicketkeeper-batter Haseebullah Khan. These adjustments have been made considering the conditions in Multan, where the same pitch from the first Test will be used for the second. Pakistan have not won a home Test since December 2022, with an 11-match winless streak, including three consecutive defeats in 2024, following a whitewash by Bangladesh. The second Test against England begins on October 15, and Pakistan will be hoping these squad changes lead to a turnaround in their fortunes. Pakistan squad for 2nd and 3rd Tests: Shan Masood (c), Saud Shakeel (vc), Aamer Jamal, Abdullah Shafique, Haseebullah (wk), Kamran Ghulam, Mehran Mumtaz, Mir Hamza, Mohammad Ali, Mohammad Huraira, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Noman Ali, Saim Ayub, Sajid Khan, Salman Ali Agha and Zahid Mehmood.

[ad_1] Babar scored his last fifty in 2022. (PC: X.com) In a surprising move, the newly formed selection committee of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to omit senior players Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi, and Naseem Shah from the 16-member squad for the final two Tests of the ongoing three-match series against England. Babar has been under scrutiny for some time, having failed to score a half-century in Test cricket since December 2022. His struggles were highlighted after twin failures in the high-scoring first Test in Multan, where he managed just 30 and 5. Following advice from the selection committee, Babar was dropped. The other two notable omissions, Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah, also struggled on the flat Multan pitch, which contributed to their exclusion. All three players have had a disappointing year. Babar averages just 18.5 in 2024 and hasn’t scored a fifty in his last 18 Test innings, while Shaheen and Naseem have averaged 72 and 51 with the ball, respectively, this year. The PCB, however, stated in an official announcement that the players have been ‘rested.’ “Taking into consideration the current form and fitness of key players and looking ahead to Pakistan’s future assignments in the 2024-25 international cricket season, the selectors have decided to rest Babar Azam, Naseem Shah, Sarfaraz Ahmed, and Shaheen Shah Afridi. Abrar Ahmed, who is recovering from dengue fever, was unavailable for selection,” the PCB said in a media release. Mohammad Ali, Noman Ali, Sajid Khan, and Zahid Mehmood have been included in the squad, alongside uncapped left-arm spinner Mehran Mumtaz and wicketkeeper-batter Haseebullah Khan. These adjustments have been made considering the conditions in Multan, where the same pitch from the first Test will be used for the second.
