Entire political leadership in danger: Interior Ministry

CNews ISLAMABAD: Interior Ministry spokesman Brigadier (Retd) Javed Iqbal Cheema Tuesday said the government has prepared a security advisory plan for politicians to avert life threat to them.He told the weekly media briefing that the advisory is aimed at providing general guidelines to the political leadership for their safety and security. Cheema said after the assassination of Benazir Bhutto it is of paramount importance that political leadership is sensitized about looming threat and asked them to adopt a security conscious approach. "The government would provide adequate security cover to the political leaders, it is incumbent upon the political leadership itself to play its role in taking necessary steps to ensure their own safety by cooperating and paying heed to security advisory." He said all Home secretaries and heads of law enforcement agencies have been given directives to ensure foolproof security of all political leaders under threat. Under the security advisory the political leadership is mandatory to maintain close liaison with provincial home departments and local police through nominated focal person. Political leaders should give due heed to security advise rendered by the local police chief. They are advised to keep provincial administration/ police informed of travel plans; not to hesitate to ask for security measures required for a specific event; avoid unnecessary public exposure; keep travel plans flexible/ unpredictable; plan and use different routes for traveling; security clearance of personal guards and employees through local police should be ensured; prefer use of security personnel provided by the government over personal guards; gather/ Cornor meetings may be used as preferred mode of electioneering and big rallies should be avoided as far as possible; unnecessary exposure during slow movement of vehicles should be avoided; unidentified persons should not have access to residence; unidentified persons should not be allowed to get closer to the leader; personal guards/ party workers detailed for security duty should be issued with security passes for recognition by local police. Cheema said law enforcement agencies are taking additional security measures in the light of the Karachi incident to make sure that the designs of the perpetrators of terrorism are foiled. He said the government is taking all precautionary measures and exercising extreme vigilance, adding it is with the cooperation of the entire nation that the country can overcome the danger posed by the terrorists and extremist elements trying to create instability. Referring to Scotland Yard team, the spokesman said that six experts in the field of explosive and graphics who left Pakistan had finished their job. "The number of experts would keep increasing or decreasing according to the needs and requirements of investigation." He said foolproof security arrangements are in place across the country to ensure peaceful religious rites during the sacred month of Muharram. All resources including troops and rangers have been mobilized to assist the law enforcement agencies for round the clock vigilance around religious places, he said. About Karachi blast, Cheema said it shows the desperation of terrorist elements who struck at innocent people in the industrial Quaid-e-Abad areas.
