Storyline


Pakistan and Afghanistan should evolve bilateral mechanisms to crack down on terrorism, as terrorists are still carrying out attacks and their support bases are still intact in Pakistan, said a Pakistani expert.

Amir Rana, director of the Pak Institute for Peace Studies (PIPS), made the remarks in an exclusive interview with China Central Television in Peshawar on Saturday.

This is the three-year anniversary of the Taliban massacre which happened in the Army Public School in Peshawar on Dec 12, 2014. Militants slaughtered more than 141 people, including 132 children.

The school heavily reinforced security measures following the massacre. Parents have to park their cars far away from the school every day in order to reduce the possibility of an explosion.

Photos of the 141 killed students and teachers are posted on a wall at the main intersection to the school.

Student Mohammad Gazer said many of his school mates were killed in the terrorist attack, but students are safer now as security continues to get better.

Rana said schools, hospitals and mosques are places commonly full of people, which makes them the most vulnerable places of terrorist attacks.

"One factor that they had relocated their networks on the other side of the border, and they are managing these attacks, and their support bases are still intact here in Pakistan," said Rana.

Rana said that because a lot of militants have fled into Afghanistan, Pakistan and Afghanistan should enhance intelligence cooperation so as to crack down on terrorists organizations like the Taliban.

"Because most of these groups are now located in Afghanistan, we have to involve some bilateral mechanisms to address the common challenges," said Rana.

"We need to not only go for the support network, go after the support network, but we need to make better coordination among intelligence agencies, and law enforcement agencies. This is the component we have to concentrate on in our future strategies," he added.
