Unrest in Kurram Agency continues
By: Afzal Bangash
PESHAWAR, Pakistan: Security officials said over a dozen
people have died in fresh clashes between heavily armed rival tribes
in a northwestern Pakistani region.
Sunni and Shiite tribes perched on hills in villages outside the town
of Parachinar are using heavy weapons including rockets, mortars,
missiles and cannons to destroy each other.
The death toll in the violence since last week reached 63.
Local administration chief Zaheer ul-Islam confirmed the unrest, but
declined to say how many people had been killed.
The latest clashes started on December 22, four days after the Shiite
Turi and Sunnite Mengal tribes signed a ceasefire agreement following
weeks of fighting which left more than 100 people dead.

better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
