PESHAWAR, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 15th August, 2016) : The Frontier Corps Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on Monday strongly refuted a news item published in a section of the press regarding alleged harassment of people in the name of border management and termed it a part of malicious propaganda of some elements to malign security forces for vested interests.

It said the allegations that "residents of Bacha Maina are harassed in the name of border management, and the attitude of FC is insulting," were totally baseless and did not commensurate with the ground realities. "The contention in the stories that 'ailing women were not allowed to go beyond Shaheed Morr for treatment to Agency HQ hospital' is patently untrue and contrary to the facts on ground," the FC added. As a matter of fact, it said, security forces / FC had adopted a very effective border management system at Shaheed Morr.
Owing to the current security threats, the system was working properly and the basic aim was to counter the terror and sabotage activities of anti-state elements. "The purpose of strict checking is to stop terrorists' entry into Pakistan as well as stop illegal entry of Afghans.
Inconvenience is only faced by those who do not possess valid CNIC," the statement said.
