Terror threats: Interior ministry implements Article 245 in Islamabad
By Web Desk
Published: July 25, 2014

ISLAMABAD: The interior ministry on Friday implemented Article 245 of the constitution in Islamabad, Express News reported.

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif had decided in principle on July 4 to approve the deployment of the armed forces in aid of the civil administration to enhance security at sensitive installations across the country under Article 245 of the Constitution. He had taken this decision after consulting his close aides during a high-level meeting.

Today, the interior ministry – acting on reliable information about possible terrorist attacks – announced the implementation of the constitutional clause in the capital. This will give army control over Islamabad’s law and order situation for three months.

Article 245

The article which deals with the functions of the armed forces states:

(1) The armed forces shall, under the directions of the federal government, defend Pakistan against external aggression or threat of war, and, subject to law, act in aid of civil power when called upon to do so.

(2) The validity of any direction issued by the federal government under Clause (1) shall not be called into question in any court.

(3) A high court shall not exercise any jurisdiction under Article 199 in relation to any area in which the armed forces of Pakistan are, for the time being, acting in aid of civil power in pursuance of Article 245: Provided that this clause shall not be deemed to affect the jurisdiction of the high court in respect of any proceeding pending immediately before the day on which the armed forces start acting in aid of civil power.

(4) Any proceedings in relation to an area referred to in Clause (3) instituted on or after the day the armed forces start acting in aid of civil power and pending in any high court shall remain suspended for the period during which the armed forces are so acting.

PTI rally

Furthermore, Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar has said that the decision as to whether to allow Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf to hold their rally in Islamabad will be taken after they file a permission letter.

[Dubious]

But why?

 

[Bilal.]

Please impose article 245 in Karachi!

 

[Jango]

I don't think this is specifically regarding the PTI rally...

The rumors were going on for quite sometime and finally it has happened.

 

[Devil Soul]

They decided to handover ISB security to Army as soon as Military Oprn started against TTP, i think this got more to do with Military Oprn rather than PTI rally

 

[OrionHunter]

But why?

Probably intel agencies have received info about terror threats as the TTP seems bent on retribution against the army operations conducted against it.

Expect some TTP fireworks in the near future. But why only Islamabad? These yahoos are capable of striking anywhere across Pakistan.

 

[Oldman1]

But why?

Thats a very good question. Could be a coup or something else. Just speculating. Maybe just in case the Taliban goes Rambo in the city like the terrorists did in Mumbai, India.

Most likely, just deterrence and quick response. Don't want to have terrorists looking like they have control over the capital. If I was them I would have done the same by attacking the city simultaneously on soft targets.

Islamabad is the capital of Pakistan. If ISB Is gone, then it's considered as Pakistan loss.. Just yesterday, there was armed recovered from some American national. There is speculations that Pakistani nuclear Program is under threat. Specially after when Army try to suppress our enemies proxies in FATA & Baluchistan.
