Pashtuns from Pakistan and Afghstan have asked the international community to manage the Durand Line, which divides the two countries, as it is being used by Pak-sponsored terrorists to unleash global terror.The concern was raised by Pashtuns at an event held in the sidelines of 42nd session of UN Human Rights Council in Geneva. Issues pertaining to concerning human rights and crimes against humty were also tabled here.Fazal ur Rehman Afridi, an activist of Pashtun Tahafuz Movement (PTM) said, "Durand Line is a bloodline for us. It has separated one nation into two. And, it's the main cause of terrorism because Pakistan is a sanctuary for terrorists and they are sending through this Durand Line the terrorists not only into Afghstan but India also and the whole world"."Everybody knows where was Osama bin Laden, where was Mullah Omar, the Taliban leader and even now the Ehsanullah Ehsan, the spokesperson of the Taliban is residing in the cantonment of the Pakistan Army. So, this line is creating problem for the Pashtun people and Pakistan is exploiting this region and exploiting the Pashtun, who are the victims of Pakist oppression and tyranny," he added.Premi Singh, an Afghan Sikh based in UK said, "The Durand Line, which is a border between Afghstan and Pakistan, is always been in a turbulent situation. This area is crucial not only for India or just Afghstan but for the international world because this is where basically lots of terrorists take advantage and cross from one side to another side of the border and get away with it".Laying stress on better management of Durand Line, he said, "This borderline must need to be monitored by the international community and much more efforts need to be provided for the Afghan government to secure this area for everyone".The members of the Pashtun and Afghan Sikh community living in Europe and UK have gathered in Geneva to raise their voice for those Pashtuns who have been extrajudicially killed and abducted by Pakistan Army in the past few years.Afridi said, "Our basic demands are the removal of land mines, to live with justice and dignity, to execute and court Rao Anwar who had killed about 440 people and demand from the United Nations to constitute a Truth and Reconciliation Commission to investigate about the human rights violations, war crimes and crimes against humty by the Pakist Army in FATA".( With inputs from ANI )
