Bajaur Taliban ban money from Benazir Income Support Programme - Naveed Yaseen - 04-06-2009 07:31 AM
KHAR: The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in Bajaur Agency on Sunday declared the money provided by the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) to women ‘haram and un-Islamic’. The TTP also warned the women against getting the BISP support money or having Computerised National Identity Cards (CNICs) made. In a broadcast on the Taliban’s illegal radio channel, Bajaur TTP chief Faqir Mohammad asked the people to stop women in their families from getting their CNICs made as during the process, the women had to come in contact with men, which was considered ‘obscenity’. He said women did not need CNICs and the TTP would not allow them to get the cards. hasbanullah khan
