“Pakistani Islamists converge on capital for Red Mosque demo”
2 hours ago
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “ISLAMABAD (AFP) — Thousands of Islamist hardliners converged amid tight security in the Pakistani capital on Sunday to commemorate the first anniversary of the deadly siege and storming of the Red Mosque, officials said.
Religious leaders were set to address a crowd in front of the building, where they would call for the release of the mosque’s jailed leader and for the government to hand back control of the complex to its former administration.
Pakistani troops surrounded the radical mosque on July 3, 2007 after clashes with Taliban and Al-Qaeda militants holed up inside, and stormed it one week later. More than 100 people were killed during the operation.”
