Talabani Calls for Calm After the Ladenite Atrocities

Kurdistan Newslines
 

Sulaimani Oct1-The Kurdish leader Jalal Talabani urged all public institutions of the
Kurdistan Regional Government and the defense forces of PESHMERGA to protect citizens’
civil rights and freedoms in the aftermath of the horrible atrocities committed by the bin
Laden’s clique ‘ Jund Al Islam’. 

He assured delegations from the Islamic Movement and Islamic League that their right to
function within the law will always be protected as the PUK does not wish to engage in
intra-Kurdistani struggles and that mainstream Islamic activities must not be mixed with the
Ladenite terrorist and savage acts. 

Mr. Talabani stated that is obvious that the murderous Jund Al Islam is intent to destroy
civil society and the democratic experiment being carried out in Kurdistan region. 

Jund Al Islam has defied KRG and deliberately spilled blood of Patriotic Union of Kurdistan
and Kurdistan Democratic Party members and that of the brave PESHMEGA in the course
of their terrorist attacks. 

A committee- consisting of PUK, Islamic Movement and Islamic League- has been formed
in Halabja to encourage strict adherence to rule of law and public freedoms.
