Clashes in northwestern Pakistan's Kurram district have resulted in significant loss of life, with at least 42 people killed and 200 injured. A temporary ceasefire has been agreed upon, and a grand jirga of tribal elders has been convened in Parachinar, the main city in the district, in an effort to resolve the conflict. The government is optimistic about reaching a resolution to end the violence.
This is unfortunately an ongoing land dispute in the area that has led to fighting in the past as well, but we are confident that we can put an end to it this time.
Naturally, there is an air of fear right now, and people are reluctant to step out of their homes. However, in the last two days, we have seen some semblance of normalcy, and things should improve.
HRCP calls on the KP government to ensure that the ceasefire being brokered, holds. All disputes, whether over land or born of sectarian conflict, must be resolved peacefully through negotiations convened by the KP government with all stakeholders represented.
