According to media reports, the military regime has been told that a ban on the Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan (SSP) and the Tehreek-e-Jaferia Pakistan (TJP) would be a violation of the fundamental rights protected in the 1973 Constitution. SSP and TJP, the two sectarian outfits, are reportedly facing threats of a possible ban by the government apparently to address the issue of sectarian terrorism. As reported earlier, two sectarian terrorist outfits – the Laskhar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) and the Sipah-e-Mohammed Pakistan (SMP) of the SSP and TJP respectively -- have been banned since August 14, 2001 in order to curb sectarianism. Reports said, at a high-level meeting convened to discuss the issue of banning the SSP and the TJP, President Musharraf was apprised of the fact that proscription of any political party unilaterally by the government would be a violation of the fundamental rights enshrined in and protected by the Constitution. The government has been told that a political party, registered as such under Political Parties Act, can only be banned by the Supreme Court of Pakistan, only if the apex court is convinced of the reasons given by the government. Sources in the Law Ministry indicated that the government could not ban any political party on its own. Both the SSP and TJP are registered as political parties and have also been participating in electoral politics. The Law Ministry sources said Article 17 of the Constitution on "Freedom of Association" protects the political parties from any extreme action by the government.

President Pervez Musharraf, in an address to the nation on electronic media, on January 12, announced the proscription of five terrorist outfits, taking the number of banned groups to seven. President Musharraf banned two outfits active in Jammu and Kashmir, the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT). Sectarian outfits Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan (SSP), Tehreek-e-Jaferia Pakistan (TJP) and Tehreek-e-Nifaz-e-Shariat-e-Mohammadi (TNSM) were also proscribed. He also announced that the Sunni Tehrik has been placed under observation. As reported earlier, two sectarian outfits, Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) and Sipah-e-Mohammed Pakistan (SMP), had been proscribed on August 14, 2001. Besides the proscription, he also banned any organisation in Pakistan if it calls itself as Lashkar, Sipah or Jaish. Those to be found involved in inciting people to commit violence, either in the external or internal context, would face punitive action, he added. He also stated that, in the year 2001, 400 persons had been killed in violent activities. He also announced future rules of behaviour for madrassas (seminaries) and mosques. He indicated that any mosque and new religious schools could be established only with the permission of the government. He also restricted the use of loudspeakers and all parties were disallowed the use of mosques or madrassas for political purpose, fanning sectarian hatred or anything that challenged the writ of the government. The President also said Pakistani religious leaders should not involve themselves in conflicts outside Pakistan. The President said Pakistan would not hand over any Pakistani national to India, though India has sent a list of 20 people it wants for terrorist and criminal activities committed in India. While condemning the terrorist attacks of September 11, October I and December 13 of year 2001, he added, if evidence was produced to Pakistan against these people, they would be proceeded against under Pakistani laws.

According to news reports, President Pervez Musharraf has directed the Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), Pakistan’s external intelligence agency, and other intelligence agencies in the country to assist police in all the four provinces in arresting sectarian terrorists. The President has reportedly directed the intelligence agencies to review and update information on the target groups so that the core groups of sectarian terrorists of both the Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan (SSP) and the Tehreek-e-Jaferia Pakistan (TJP) are arrested and not their second and third tier cadres. Reports said, the Interior Ministry would co-ordinate the reports of the various intelligence agencies and monitor their working with the provincial police.

Syed Sajid Ali Naqvi, President of the proscribed Tehreek-e-Jaferia Pakistan (TJP), has denied press reports that the party has been renamed as Millat-e-Jaferia Pakistan (MJP). He said, in Lahore, on January 13, "The question of renaming the TJP does not arise." He said the offices of the defunct TJP were mainly functioning in rental buildings, which have already been vacated. He also denied reports that he was arrested in Islamabad. He said consultations were in progress on approaching the courts for legal action. He said police have taken dozens of defunct TJP cadres from Sindh and Punjab into custody. Meanwhile, Tauqeer Baba, General Secretary of the defunct TJP, Punjab, welcomed the imposition of ban on the outfit. He said, "We can sacrifice to any extent for the sake of sectarian peace and harmony…If President Pervez Musharraf considers that sectarian peace can prevail by imposing a ban, we accept it wholeheartedly. The parties come and go and these never matter for the sake of the nation and supremacy of law."

Chief of Tehreek-e-Jaferia (TJP), Allama Sajid Ali Naqvi has reportedly indicated at the formation of a new party after the imposition of a ban against it by the government. "We have already got an approval at a convention to set up a new party. The other course is to move the court. If we hope to get justice we may approach the court also", he told the BBC. He observed that the TJP is now thinking to adopt some alternative course. Commenting on the proscription, he reportedly said, "We denounce it and reject it. It is altogether excess. The real culprits are those who have taken Pakistan to the brink of destruction. They destroyed Pakistan because of the previous Afghan policy and they carried this destruction to the whole world. We played role in the politics of Pakistan. We participated in several elections. Pakistani law does not allow ban on a political party."
