Twelve killed in protests across Afghanistan

25.02.2012

Twelve people were killed on Friday in the bloodiest day yet in protests that have raged across Afghanistan over the desecration of copies of the Muslim holy book at a NATO military base with riot police and soldiers on high alert braced for more violence.

The burning of the Qur’ans at the Bagram compound earlier this week has deepened public mistrust of NATO forces struggling to stabilize Afghanistan before foreign combat troops withdraw in 2014.

(We urge all Muslims in Afghanistan and Pakistan to End this Protest at once. What we feel certain Political Parties will take advantage of this situation for their Political Achievements)
