Rehman Malik sees RAW hand in Bacha Khan attack

The terrorist act at Bacha Khan University near Peshawar has once again reminded Pakistan of RAW hand. Pakistan had forgotten the Indian agency, Research and Analysis Wing, for a long time. It did not remember RAW even during the attack on Peshawar Army School by its `bad terrorists,' Tehrik-e-Taliban. Former Pakistan Interior Minister Rehman Malik suddenly remembered RAW after the Bacha Khan attack, which was claimed to have been carried out by Tehrik-e-Taliban. Rehman Malik also saw a conspiracy by RAW and Indian Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar and said Bacha Khan attack was masterminded by Parrikar. Proof? He quoted Parrikar after Pathankot Airbase terror attack as saying the enemy would have to suffer similar pain. How dare Parrikar could say such things? Rehman Malik said the RAW conspiracy was that the agency did not want relations to be improved between India and Pakistan. "Whenever the Modi government tried to hold talks, RAW thwarted such moves," he added. The former Pakistani Minister is talking through his fez cap. The old rhetoric of RAW hand is passe. If he could clearly see, Tehrik-e-Taliban is fundamentalist and targeting Western-type education in the Peshawar area. The latest Bacha Khan and Army School attacks are case in point.
