Enmity with Mazhab-i-Ahli Bayt (A) … Shia books drowned in Afghan river
By: Rafiullah
KABUL, Afghanistan: BBC reported on Tuesday May 26 that provincial
authorities in south-western Afghanistan have thrown thousands of
books, mainly about Shias or Shia Islam, into a river.
According to the Nimroz government the books, copies of 11 titles,
undermined national integrity and could fuel ethnic problems.
The report said while quoting officials that they were acting on
instructions from the ministries of culture and justice but
ministerial spokesmen have denied this in interviews with the BBC.
The books, which circulate freely elsewhere in Afghanistan, were
seized six months ago.
The destruction of the books in this way is thought to be
unprecedented.
Nimroz province, which borders Iran, is one of the few Afghan
provinces which does not have a permanent presence of international
troops. It has seen an increase in violence over the past few months
and is an area where the Taleban have a strong influence.
