ISLAMABAD (Online) - Federal Interior Minister Rehman Malik has urged the international community not to worry about Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal as it is a responsible nuclear country.

Talking to a private TV channel on Sunday, he said Pakistan’s nukes are in safe hands and cannot fell into wrong hands and appealed to the international community to treat Pakistan like India. Commenting on ongoing military operation, the minister said that most low-level Taliban commanders have been killed and now their top leadership would be targeted in the security forces offensive against them in Swat.

He said the operation could also be conducted where we have information about presence of militants and Taliban because we are committed to flush out them. PM Yousuf Raza Gilani launched the offensive against militants by taking all parties into confidence, he said.

“We have been able to control law and order,” he said, adding: “We have feared reaction of our operation against militants but the law enforcement agencies have been put on high alert to cope any emergency situation.”

He went on to say the militants wanted to make state within a state. The militants were getting weapons from across the border and their supply line has been cut off, he said.

The militants have sophisticated weapons and radio and operation against them would be continued till their complete elimination,” he added.

The Taliban violated the peace agreement 39 times including kidnapping associates of ANP senior leader Afzal Khan Lala, he said. Answering a question, he said the security forces are wagging guerilla war in Swat.
