LANDIKOTAL: The elders and a large number of tribesmen from the Shinwari Khuga Khel tribe organized a protest demonstration against the NLC(National Logistic Cell) at Landikotal Bazar on Wednesday.
A large number of Khuga Khel tribe elders and locals gathered at Bacha Khan square and criticized the officials of the NLC in Torkham who were violating the written agreement with the Khuga Khel tribe in Torkham regularly.
Talking on the occasion, Mairaj ud Din Shinwari said that NLC officials in Torkam were always violating the agreement and misusing it.
The Khuga Khel elders said the NLC was illegally using the powers of the customs department and the political administration which was a clear violation of law and regulations.
The elders said all the locals of Landikotal including the Khuga Khel tribal suffered due to the strict security measures at the Torkham border which badly affected the daily trade of the people.
The elders threatened if the NLC authorities did not stop the misuse of the agreement, they would launch a nonstop protest demonstration against the officials of NLC in Torkham.
