Lal Masjid wilts under pressure

July 05, 2007
On Thursday, even as the security forces extended the curfew and gave a fresh deadline for the students to surrender, parents of some of the girls inside the mosque said their wards were forcibly kept inside.

However, Maulana Abdul Rashid Ghazi, the younger brother of Aziz, told TV channels over the phone that the morale of the students was high.
