Haroon Rashid claimed in a talk-show that TTP performed forced marriages with around 200 Muslim women in Mingora, Swat. How much truth is there in these accusations? can any member from Swat please expand on this.

[h=1]Taliban new dictum: Marry daughters to militants[/h]
On the heels of their crusade against girls going to schools, the Taliban have now issued new dictum in the areas under their sway asking parents of the grown up daughters to marry them to militants or 'face dire consequences'.


This new force-marriage campaign is being run in most of the areas in the Pakistan's troubled NWFP through regular announcements made in mosques to congregations.


Such instances have come to light recently through some of the affected women daring to go to authorities for justice rather than meekly surrender to the militants dictates.

But that is an Indian source. This is a huge issue there must be some serious paper in Pakistan which discussed it in detail. One would think that there would be an open revolt in Swat if TTP was to try such forced marriages.

Haroon actually said that they abducted 200 girls and then forcefully married them, which would make it a form of rape not something sacred like marriage. But why was it not covered in Pakistani media, there are a lot of liberal journalists which are ideologically at war with Taliban phenomenon. This issue was perfect for maligning TTP.

 

[NasNY]

Truth lies somewhere between propaganda and reality.

Only way to know for sure is to find the majority of the girls and interview them, which is not happening anytime soon.

Thanks for sharing that. As a someone from Swat what is your opinion on Fazullah and TTP? How did they treat a common man in Swat and how good or bad was the system as compared to rest of Pakistan?

As you are from swat, must tell about the true realities as there is lot of propaganda war.

 

[ali-raj]

Baseless Fake Information. Just like LAL MASJID 2000 Female Students death by the hand of Army.

If they can abduct them, Why marry? just use and throw away, or keep them as Slave (since every body calls these TTP guys foreigners)

Anyway. There are some news of beheading and Skinning of persons, but again, when you closely scrutinize them , then it becomes clear that just stories passed around by people to spread fear.

 

[ZenoInTheZoo]

The question is why did Haroon R not get published this info as a news item in the paper he works for? Why not mentioned it in his columns? Why now to divulge this info after 3-4 years? and finally keep in mind his main source of info in these matter, usually he is fed info by the army.........

 

[huspania]

jahileen, like Haroon Rashed are sticking to the point that Munwar hassad gave a statement that if kuffars are not shaheed then how those who give them support can be shaheed. The fact is that Munawar Hassed said that there is a question is his mind that if US army are not shahed then someone should tell me how those can be shaheed who support them.
History of afghanistan was that it was PAK army was taking money from US to fight against the russians and JI was determined to defeat Russians, then there was not question in relation to your described islam. Infact there is islam today anywhere in the world, all is a game of money and PAKISTANIS has been considered by US senator as people selling their mothers for money. And i reckon this was an indication towards the ARMY and then people like these sitting in the media and some political parties.

بھائی! میں بھی سوات سے تعلق رکھتا ہوں... اگر آپ کو یاد ہو ، 2 سال پہلے ای ایس پی آر والوں نے دہشت گردی اور پاک فوج پر ٹی وی ڈرامہ سیریز بنائی تھی جس کا اچھا خاصہ بجٹ تھا...
'Faseel-e-Jaan Se Aagay'
وہ ڈرامہ سیریز اس فورم پر کیی بار ڈسکسس بھی ہوا تھا... اس میں ایک کہانی اس واقعہ کے متعلق بھی تھی جس کا ہارون رشید صاحب نے حوالہ دیا ہے... لیکن اگر اس ڈرامے کے واقعے یا ہاروں صاحب کے دیے گئے حوالے کے بارے میں پوچھیں تو میرے خیال میں انفرادی حثیت سے کسی طالب یا "طالب نما" نے ایسا کوئی کام کیا ہو تو ہو سکتا ہے... لیکن ...اگر مجموعی طور پر دیکھا جائے تو میرا نہیں خیال کہ سوات کے طالبان نے ایسا کوئی کام کیا ہو ....

طالبان میں بہت سی برائیاں تھیں لیکن ہر برائی کے پیچھے کچھ نہ کچھ وجوہات بھی ہوتی ہیں ...

'Faseel-e-Jaan Se Aagay'
Drama Series on True Stories of Brave Pakistanis Launched by ISPR & CRS​

Watch Promo​

Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) and Communications Research Strategies (CRS) have jointly launched an 11-part drama series based on the true stories of brave Pakistanis who exhibited exemplary resilience during recent insurgency in Swat.

The drama series is televised by PTV Home on every Friday at 7:40 pm from January 14, 2011.

​

The drama series Faseel-e-Jaan Se Aagay, is aimed at depicting the courage of Pakistani people and armed forces that they exhibited during the operation against terrorists and militants in Mingora region. The drama series is an epic journey in the lives of common people, jawans and officers of Pakistan Army who despite all odds stood by their conviction and showed firm resolve to weed out terrorism and rendered invaluable sacrifices in the line of duty. The series will unveil the real face of terrorists and militants that have been exploiting the downtrodden in the name of religion. The series exhibits the level of price that Pakistan is paying for global peace as the immediate victims of suicide attacks are common Pakistani people and the people fearlessly fighting these terrorists and sacrificing their lives are Pakistani soldiers. It also highlights the value of public support when any armed force has to fight insurgency.

​

Rich on emotions, actions, sacrifice, valour and patriotism, the drama series contains certain scenes which have never appeared on TV screens in Pakistan. Through the poignant tales of gallant heroes of Pakistan Army who refused to yield in the face of terror and terrorists who held hostage the peace of the country, the drama series reinforces the true message of peace and forbearance; it also gives enough stimulus to pull people out of despondency and shows light on the other end of the tunnel and motivates them to stand by their security forces. The series has been written by a team of seasoned writers and has been filmed by a group of select directors.

The eleven dramas have been penned by renowned playwrights like Zafar Meraj, Wasi Shah,Sajjad Saji and Aamir Raza while talented list of directors includes Kashif Nisar, Azeem Sajjad, Shakeel Adnan and Aamir Yousaf. Executive Producer of the entire series is Khawar Azhar who is also the Chief Operating Officer of CRS.

Penned by young maestro Imran Raza the theme song of the play 'Imtihan Hai Imtihan' has been jointly sung by Rahat Fateh Ali and Shafqat Amanat Ali Khan. The song has been composed by Sahir Ali Bagga who is also performing on a special DUA sung by him at the end of the event.

A crude Improvised Explosive Device (IED) had been placed on his route and brave DSP eventually embraced martyrdom.
