Kalash threaten migration if Greek not recovered

*Locals say govt does not provide any security, potable water to Kalash tribesmen

By Zakir Hassnain

PESHAWAR: Kalash people warned on Friday the whole community would leave the country in protest if the government did not take serious action against the kidnappers of Greek social worker and did not recover him.

The Kalash community demanded army troops be deployed in the Kalash valley areas of Bamborait, Birir and Rambore for the protection of the people.

Taleem Khan, Chustyar Khan and Zareen Khan, residents of Kalash who addressed a press conference along with Kalash women at Peshawar Press Club, said local Taliban had abducted Greek engineer and social worker Athanasee Laironaise.

“If the government doesn’t take any serious action, we (whole community) will leave Pakistan and go to some other country, a move which would bring bad name to Pakistan,” said Taleem Khan.

Taleem said they (Kalash) were peaceful people and did not have even a small gun for protection. “The government does not provide us any security, education and water supply,” he said. Taleem said the Greek social worker had been serving the Kalash people in Bamborait, Birir and Rambore valleys in Chitral district for the past 20 years and had a very good record.

People in the Kalash valleys are frightened and feel insecure and unrest is growing due to the kidnapping of the Greek social worker,” he said. A Kalash woman said the government had always ignored Kalash and its residents and was not providing them any education, health faculties and financial assistance. “Pakistan has done nothing for us. We’ll migrate,” she said.

Chustyar said the kidnappers were local Taliban and had come from Nooristan bordering Kalash valleys. Minority Member of the Provincial Assembly (MPA) Prince Javed said it was his responsibility to protect minorities. “I condemn the kidnapping of the Greek engineer and social worker and demand his early recovery,” said the MPA.

The minority MPA demanded the federal and provincial governments deploy army units in Bamborait, Birir and Rambore valleys. “Kalash people are scared and want protection,” he said. Javed demanded immediate recovery of the Greek social worker.

Why are Muslims in Pakistan so obsessed with trying to destroy these people? You often hear ignorant maulvis in that area trying to convert them, yet they have no problem crying about how the West is trying to destroy them :rolleyes:

Dont be so ignorant
there are 170 million muslims in Pakistan and u mean to say that
all of them are poised or obsessed to destroy Kalash people?
did u really think before u did post your comment? It totally does not make any sense mate.
Few maulvies do not count or represent 170 million muslims.
aap kaun ho? u do have 786 behind your nickname but any sensible muslims does not want to destroy anyone/any person.

In a country of consisting of 97% Muslims, which religious group do you think is going to be dominant?

For what it’s worth, the Kalash have been remarkably protected in terms of culture and ethnicity.

Just like in India, many Muslims adopt Hindu names to fit in better, or in Africa where Christian missionaries try to convert Africans, in Pakistan the Kalash may adapt in order fit in more.

shrug

It happenes everywhere - as for forced conversions… What nonsense.

te kalash are a real minority in pakistan and are suffering a real threat to theirculture and way of life. other groups in pakistan just moan forthe sake of it.

there are no forced conversions of kalash in pakistan - if the kalash disappear chitral will lose a significant chunk of its tourist revenue. chitralis need the kalash - they are a source of income forthe district. foreign tourists love visiting the kalash valleys but the last 3 years have een very bad for the region.

the kalash are more protected than most but they will lose their culture eventually either to slam, bollywood or western culture. changes do take place - not alays forthe worse.

Re: Kalash threaten migration from Pakistan

the shud b converted to islam so that they can taste jannat

They **"should" **be converted...?

No they shouldn't be!

We should teach them about Islam, show them the Quran and the Seerah and then let them make the choice. We shouldn't force anyone to convert to Islam, because then they would be converting not for the sake of Allah but because of fear of men.

Re: Kalash threaten migration from Pakistan

lol Why do you have to propagate Islam to them? Why cant you just leave them alone.

I agree - these people live in an Islamic state. They come in contact with Muslims daily. They can become Muslims if they want.

This whole business about 'converting them' is disturbing.
