Pakistan Foreign Minister Hina,
“We have the right to make our own decision.”Khar went to say that scapegoating and blame games would not help. Pakistan wanted to be a US partner. “I just hope that we’ll be given a chance to co-operate with each other and the doors will remain open — because statements like this are pretty much close to shutting those doors,”

“If we talk about links, I am sure the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) also has links with many terrorist organisations around the world, by which we mean intelligence links,” she said. “And this particular network, which [the United States] continues to talk about, is a network which was the blue-eyed boy of the CIA itself for many years.”

NEW DELHI: A 31-year-old surgeon, who was the batch topper in the masters course, strangled his MBA wife with a dupatta in their west Delhi house last Friday night, put the body in his car and travelled more than 1,000km before dumping it in the Ganga near Allahabad.

The accused, Dr Chandra Vibhas Sahu, a senior resident doctor at west Delhi's DDU hospital, had a history of violent behaviour towards his wife during the couple's 10-monthold marriage. The victim, Supriya Tussar, 27, had done her BTech from Hyderabad and had a masters in business administration from Rajasthan. She had recently got a Rs 85,000 job offer from an IT major. Both hailed from Jharkhand.

Sahu, who was arrested on Monday, reportedly told the police he was "physically and mentally incompatible" with his wife. Though the immediate provocation for the crime is not clear, additional CP (west) V Renganathan said Sahu could have been planning it for some time. The local Hari Nagar police had received several calls in the past about fights between the couple with Sahu often getting violent.

The police said, after killing his wife, Sahu stuffed the body in a canvas bag and put it in his i20 car, which was a wedding gift from the girl's family chosen by Supriya. He drove almost non-stop to Bihar. But suspecting he was being tracked by his in-laws, Sahu turned back and drove to Haria in rural Allahabad.

He then dumped the body in the Ganga, expecting it to be washed away. "But the place where he dropped her body was a swamp caused by flooding. When the water receded, the UP cops recovered the body," said an investigator.

Supriya Tussar a BTech from Hyderabad and an MBA, was offered 85,000 salary a month by an IT major, but her husband, Dr Chandra Vibhas Sahu, didn't want her to work.

Sahu, senior resident of surgery at Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital, was often violent with Tussar during their 10-month marriage. Tussar had even lodged a complaint with police.

Sahu threw her out of the house in February 2011. When she returned in July, he forced her to spend a week in a mental hospital "to prove she was mad."

CAIRO: A Saudi woman has been sentenced to be lashed 10 times with a whip for defying the kingdom's prohibition on female drivers, the first time a legal punishment has been handed down for a violation of the longtime ban in the ultraconservative Muslim nation.

Normally, police just stop female drivers, question them and let them go after they sign a pledge not to drive again. But dozens of women have continued to take to the roads since June in a campaign to break the taboo.

Making Tuesday's sentence all the more upsetting to activists is that it came just two days after King Abdullah promised to protect women's rights and decreed that women would be allowed to participate in municipal elections in 2015. Abdullah also promised to appoint women to a currently all-male advisory body known as the Shura Council.

The mixed signals highlight the challenge for Abdullah, known as a reformer, in pushing gently for change without antagonizing the powerful clergy and a conservative segment of the population.

Abdullah said he had the backing of the official clerical council. But activists saw Tuesday's sentencing as a retaliation of sorts from the hard-line Saudi religious establishment that controls the courts and oversees the intrusive religious police.

``Our king doesn't deserve that,'' said Sohila Zein el-Abydeen, a prominent female member of the governmental National Society for Human Rights. She burst into tears in a phone interview and said, ``The verdict is shocking to me, but we were expecting this kind of reaction.''

The driver, Shaima Jastaina, in her 30s, was found guilty of driving without permission, activist Samar Badawi said. The punishment is usually carried out within a month. It was not possible to reach Jastaina, but Badawi, in touch with Jastaina's family, said she appealed the verdict.

Saudi Arabia is the only country in the world that bans women _ both Saudi and foreign _ from driving. The prohibition forces families to hire live-in drivers, and those who cannot afford the $300 to $400 a month for a driver must rely on male relatives to drive them to work, school, shopping or the doctor.

There are no written laws that restrict women from driving. Rather, the ban is rooted in conservative traditions and religious views that hold giving freedom of movement to women would make them vulnerable to sins.

Activists say the religious justification is irrelevant.

``How come women get flogged for driving while the maximum penalty for a traffic violation is a fine, not lashes?'' Zein el-Abydeen said. ``Even the Prophet (Muhammad's) wives were riding camels and horses because these were the only means of transportation.''

Since June, dozens of women have led a campaign to try to break the taboo and impose a new status quo. The campaign's founder, Manal al-Sherif, who posted a video of herself driving on Facebook, was detained for more than 10 days. She was released after signing a pledge not to drive or speak to media.

Since then, women have been appearing in the streets driving their cars once or twice a week.

Until Tuesday, none had been sentenced by the courts. But recently, several women have been summoned for questioning by the prosecutor general and referred to trial.

One of them, housewife Najalaa al-Harriri, drove only two times, not out of defiance, but out of need, she says.

``I don't have a driver. I needed to drop my son off at school and pick up my daughter from work,'' she said over the phone from the western port city of Jiddah.

``The day the king gave his speech, I was sitting at the prosecutor's office and was asked why I needed to drive, how many times I drove and where,'' she said. She is to stand trial in a month.

After the king's announcement about voting rights for women, Saudi Arabia's Grand Mufti Abdel Aziz Al Sheik blessed the move and said, ``It's for women's good.''

Al-Harriri, who is one of the founders of a women's rights campaign called ``My Right My Dignity,'' said, ``It is strange that I was questioned at a time the mufti himself blessed the king's move.''

Asked if the sentencing will stop women from driving, Maha al-Qahtani, another female activist, said, ``This is our right, whether they like it or not.''

Updated at: 2317 PST, Tuesday, September 27, 2011 ISLAMABAD: Government of Pakistan has issued a notification imposing new restrictions on the future Hajj pilgrims under which the pilgrims will have to choose from only three airlines to travel to Saudi Arabia, Geo News reported. The pilgrims can no longer choose freely from any national or international airline for traveling to Saudi Arabia for the purpose of performing Hajj other than the three specified by the government. These are PIA, Saudi Airlines and Shaheen Airlines. The government has issued orders that the pilgrims having tickets of airlines other than the above three be stopped from traveling. This restriction puts a question mark on the prospect of thousands of Hujaj who have already bought tickets from other airliners including Khaleej Airlines will travel to their destination. It is a well-known fact that PIA does not have enough planes while limited number of seats are available with Shaheen Air and Saudi Airlines. So this year too, the picture does not look very promising for the Hajj pilgrims.
