Islamabad: Pakistan’s Minister for Information and Broadcasting, Qamar Zaman Kaira Tuesday said that Pakistan was continuing its crackdown against Haqqani Network and other militant outfits.
Talking to Reuters, Kaira said that crackdown against Haqqani network was continuing and it does not need new initiative against militants.
United Nations (UN) Security Council committee for Taliban Monday imposed sanctions on Pakistan based Haqqani Network, blamed for several High profile attacks in Afghanistan.
“The three elements of the ban — arms embargo, asset freeze and travel ban — are all already in place in Pakistan,” Information Minister said.
The United States designated the Haqqani network as a terrorist organisation in September, a move the group’s commanders said proved Washington was not sincere about peace efforts in Afghanistan.
“Which banned militant can openly travel in Pakistan? We have also checked on financing and other transfers. There is no problem,” Kaira added.
