Militant leader Maulana Fazlullah on Sunday called PML-Q leaders sons of US President Bush and supporters of President Pervez Musharraf enemies of Islam.

After a two-week break, he called upon his followers through his FM radio station not to be discouraged and kill security personnel if they could. “Do not be discouraged or be frightened, wherever you see 10 to 20 security personnel go ahead and kill them.

“The government has started an FM radio station in the name of Swat Radio Channel to air their propaganda, so do not listen to them,” he added.
