NWFP: School warned against co-education - Naveed Yaseen - 05-09-2009 07:41 AM
KARAK: Taliban have warned the administration of Government High School Khojaki Killay to end the co-education system within a week or face the consequences.
The principal of the school, Nazeer Khan, told reporters here Friday that he had received a letter from the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), Waziristan and Karak chapters, that the co-education in the school was against the teachings and spirit of Islam and that they were fighting against all those who were working against the teachings of Islam.
“End the co-education in the school within one week or face the consequences,” the principal quoted the letter as saying. He said he had apprised the executive district officer (EDO-Education) Muhammad Iqbal about the entire situation and also sent a copy of the letter to DCO Muhammad Ajmal and District Police Officer Sajid Ahmad Khan Mohmand.
At least 150 girls were enrolled in the school, he said, adding that he had called a meeting of parents and briefed them regarding the entire situation. He said he asked them to admit their daughters to girl high schools with the stipulated time.
