Munawar blames Blackwater for Lahore bombings KARACHI: Jamaat-e-Islami Amir Syed Munawar Hasan Friday alleged that infamous US security firm Blackwater was behind all terror attacks in Pakistan under the supervision of Interior Minister Rehman Malik.
Addressing a news conference here on Friday, Hasan advised the ruling PPP to give the portfolio of interior ministry to someone else to save it’s standing.
The JI leader alleged that Karachi target killing and Lahore bombings were carried out by Blackwater. The Interior Minister was supervising all the activities of Blackwater across the country, he said.
Such incidents, he said, would continue unless the interior minister was removed.
The Afghani soil is being used for ‘proxy war’, he said, adding the Unites States now wants to use Afghanistan against Iran.
To a question, Hasan said that Pakistan-India talks would not yield results with solution of the Kashmir dispute.
