==================================================
Statement/ Support
Spokesman and member central secretariat Communist Party of
Pakistan has condemned the coldblooded murder of an aged
and old political worker Comrade Jamil Lala, by fascist
religious forces. He offered condolences to members of
grieved family on behalf of central committee of CPP. He
demanded restoration of peace in Pakhtunkhwa province.
Comrade Jamil Lala, aged 65, passed his life as a committed
political worker. He did not marry due to his total
commitment to revolutionary struggle. He passed his time in
his native place, Timergara District Dir Lower in welfare
work and promoting Marxism. He was kidnapped on 24th
January 2009, while traveling in a car. He was beaten and
then shot dead and his dead body was thrown at central city
crossing. His body has marks of cutting and torture. A
letter was also left near his body threatening same fate
for all those spreading western cultures or communism. All
such person has been directed to leave the country.
Some times ago Comrade Jamshed Nayab, writer of many books
and member of provincial committee of the party was
murdered in D.I. Khan in similar fashion. Provincial
Secretary of the Party Comrade Taj was killed with burst of
Kalashnikov in Dir Lower in the Zia?s era. The list issued
by Pakistani Taliban for appearing in Taliban?s own Shariah
courts also contains the names of the members of NWFP
organization of the party. The persons mentioned in the
list have been warned of targeted killing in case they
failed to appear in the courts established by obscurantist.
The provincial secretary of the party and members of
provincial and central committees, residing there are under
constant threat of being eliminated. The existing
Provincial Secretary and two central committee members are
under serious threat from Talibans and urgently need
protection. The provincial government has now limited to
the Chief Minister House and Governor House at Peshawar. In
Pakistan the state is unable to protect the lives of the
citizens. The Party members are threatened, their houses
are attacked and they have migrated to other places,
however Talibans continue their search in other places as
well.
Communist Party of Pakistan appeals to all democratic and
secular parties to pressurize the government to protect the
lives of the political workers belonging to progressive and
secular parties.
