Daesh flag hoisted to distract government, claims interior minister
ISLAMABAD: Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry on Wednesday said that the Daesh flag was put up in Islamabad to distract the government.
Chaudhry reiterated Nisar’s stance on the presence of Daesh group in Pakistan and rubbished claims about the terrorist group's presence in the country.
"We have been informed that the [Daesh] flag was put up to distract [the government]," Chaudhry said. “A special investigation team has been formed to probe the incident.”
The Senate Standing Committee on Interior demanded a detailed report regarding the appearance of a militant Daesh group’s flag in Islamabad’s suburbs last week.
Senator Mukhtiar Ahmed Dhamra expressed serious concern over the country’s security situation in the meeting.
“The former interior minister Chaudhry Nisar had denied the presence of Daesh group in the country, yet the group's flag was hoisted in Islamabad,” Senator Dhamra said.
The committee approved the law to install close-circuit cameras in the markets and trade centres of the capital.
