Pakistan airstrike protesters smash up buildings
Nov 01 12:44 PM US/Eastern

Armed Pakistani tribesmen have ransacked government buildings in protest at a deadly air raid on an Islamic school that officials said was visited by top Al-Qaeda militants.

A leading human rights group and politicians meanwhile called for an independent probe into claims that the 80 people who died in Monday’s strike in Bajaur tribal agency were all students and teachers.

In a second day of demonstrations against the US and Pakistani governments more than 20,000 people, many brandishing guns, gathered at several rallies in the remote Pashtun tribal belt along the Afghan border.

The biggest protest was at Salarzae village, near the blown-up madrassa, where about 10,000 bearded men demanded the resignation of President Pervez Musharraf.

Some of the 8,000 protesters at Momandgarh town, just outside Bajaur, smashed up a private school, an electricity substation, an uncompleted building for security officials, local authorities said.

They also torched two makeshift tents set up by the tribal police.

“We want justice for the blood of these innocent people, we demand an inquiry and punishment for those who carried out this brutality,” Haroon Rashid, a legislator from the region, told the crowd in Momandgarh later.

Islamic leaders made further threats of retaliation including a cleric who urged around 1,000 protesters at Landi Kotal town in the nearby Khyber district to become suicide bombers, an AFP correspondent said.

“Muslims should become suicide bombers to defend themselves. There is no other way but to wage jihad against the aggressors,” said Maulana Nasiruddin, a leader of a Sunni Muslim hardline group.

Hundreds of troops completely sealed off Bajaur district and part of Mohmand on Wednesday for “security reasons”, officials said. Markets and schools in Khar also remained closed for a third day.

“They are not allowing anyone to leave or enter Bajaur, it is completely sealed off,” resident Irfanullah told AFP, speaking by telephone.

Security forces were on alert nationwide against the possibility of militant reprisals for the airstrike on the seminary, particularly with Britain’s Prince Charles in Pakistan on a high-profile tour.

He and his wife Camilla visited earthquake-hit Pakistani Kashmir on Wednesday.

Anti-Western feeling has been high amid allegations by Islamist leaders that US forces based in Afghanistan either launched the raid themselves using Predator drones or ordered Pakistan to carry it out.

US-based advocacy group Human Rights Watch Wednesday urged the Pakistan government to give journalists and activists access to the shut-off area to establish the facts behind the raid.

“The Pakistani government should allow independent investigators into the area to determine who carried out the attack, how it was planned and executed, and who was killed,” HRW South Asia researcher Ali Dayan Hasan said.

“The onus is on the Pakistani government to provide a credible account of the legitimacy of the attack resulting in the deaths of so many,” Hasan said in a statement.

However Pakistan security officials say that Ayman Al-Zawahiri — Osama bin Laden’s deputy — and London airliner bombing plot mastermind Abu Obaida Al-Misri had frequently visited the seminary in the past.

Neither were in the madrassa at the time of the attack, the officials said at a briefing.

They identified Al-Misri as Al-Qaeda’s operational commander in the eastern Afghan province of Kunar, which borders Bajaur.

They also said he was a mentor to Rashid Rauf, a Briton arrested by Pakistan in August in connection with the alleged conspiracy to blow up transatlantic jets, the security official said.

The attack followed months of surveillance and was necessary because the training camp’s chiefs were “in a hurry to push them out after training for attacks” in either neighbouring Afghanistan or Pakistan, they said.
