Author: Online

ISLAMABAD: The government has decided to impose a ban on Jundullah and all the terrorist groups that claim responsibility for terror attacks.

Sources said that the National Counter Terrorism Authority (NACTA), on the directives of the Interior Ministry, has decided to impose a ban on Jundullah and all splinter groups of terrorists.

The decision for slapping the ban was made after the group claimed responsibility for the Wagah Border and Peshawar Church attacks. Provinces have been directed to provide details about Jundullah. The NECTA has sent a letter to authorities in all four provinces, Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan, besides the Islamabad Chief Commissioner.
