thousand and two thousand and one but since then the drug problem is believed to have worsened rising one hundred percent from two thousand to two thousand and six chief of pakistanis and courtships force mr saying it should kill hussein joins our team now to discuss the situation and the country's efforts to deal with it thank you sir very much for joining us from your lectures which represents the greatest drug related threat to pakistan's security traffic in three a country or poppy cultivation within it and we heard this in the here in syria poppy free lest some of the regions here and you know credit for spirit pretty weak all of the ongoing. problems in the tribal area so the growth in pakistan is at best seven hundred to this and if you are below one thousand free

and only recently we have destroyed some of the poppy growth in our. provincial council we have a lot of. free so the biggest area for us to me is this trafficking the trafficking record to do so far as the growth is there are no understand and so far as the market is there in the rest any other part of our what's your organization to tackle these problems tackle trafficking and we have a long border with afghanistan or two thousand or your long border with iran or most of poland kilometers we have. great course you're working on all these bases right straight is it would. and the season is over the government of pakistan with the assistance of other law enforcement agencies and in if they continue to be in the top three in the world we are doing our best that we

can do cooperating internationally international season is only this year out about twenty two thousand p.t.o. for passion or it was thirteen thousand feet in canada fifteen point eight tons of acidic and a great in the way and for the places we're doing our best but if you think we can do it i think you're far from it not and particularly if. may is a not taken to curtail growth in the when it's not and the demand in other countries does not reduce. how is the drug traffic to stop house haven. always hidden the save a drug barons operate the same way all of the world it goes through dies down in central asian republics it goes from here on it goes through others and forces and we have been to be one of the truthers goes country goes to pakistan also the world turkey thirty five percent crude oil from parts that they'd use all the means

whether it's here or whether it's meant back. passing into. to our coastal regions and take it on the board and in me is their dated oct sixth it's award which is continuously going on david out on may third fourth a few days then changed to the next been to the next so their organisation on the other side which is doing it is very smart very educated and very well informed and we continue to fight there and we continue to fight that. and it's an ongoing world which is going on makes us diplomatic cables points to corruption involved controls between afghanistan and pakistan through which drugs flow and what's being done to tackle cross borders. corruption cross border corruption bush won't ask this question specifically to pox what's happening in mexico in america what's happening in their place it's common all the world people are the same they have same

requirements the same problem there's the impressions so this is nothing special is going on in pakistan in the west and smaller and in any case presently on the one border we are not deployed because of the ongoing militancy there so we are rather diluted on the borders and on the second we have got there and doing the best that we can. i take it as an exception this question particularly coming for pakistan is common the world over so there is a corruption yes there is and will it is not and when it is not is there is a place where there is no corruption it's not possible to deal with it is the question you should ask me is it possible to deal with it so let me tell you the world is not adequate to do what needs to be done people are just happy with conferences awareness campaigns because it is the easier part of the thing than we have been talking about it all over the world in all the conferences if you were to hit this menace it is the same thing as set a thief to catch

a thief you have to calculate informants and adequately pay them and this thing will go down and we hit hard that is what we are doing and the support that comes from the international community the countries which are destined for this drug are feeling the heat of it they must do things more emphatically and in quantifiable numbers which is not happening apart so it sounds a bit like you are blaming the international community for not doing enough to help thank you very very positively and very straight i am blaming the international community not for doing enough if unity is he had been there for about fifty years the question is has it produced a drug. it hasn't united states of america is good in a while it's not for the last almost seven idiot is so much a force it has a duty to use their drugs production there he says not so what can pakistan alone

do on the second how are you copywriting we have got to stop rid of understand we have adequate adequate not only my choice of the best we have adequate cooperation with them and frequently we have there is it's coming to us resists wearing them on the telly this year would we keep sharing with them and some of the media operations have been conducted with drugs have been seized and some of the high value targets they want for good or because of our interaction with are not doing so they are between the drug trade and terrorist organizations working inside and outside pakistan how do you think total of one money. money that is. generated by of on opium which goes to the father is about four hundred million dollars by the time this leaves the borders and the changes hand many friends it generates one billion dollars and by the time it reaches its destination

according to google the niners or not the latest because in that it has already escalated it generated sixty five billion dollars so what are you talking what are we talking about who's making the most of the money yes part of the money must be going to the organization which i mean there's no doubt on this but snooker decides why are we ignoring things which are happening elsewhere. why are we not talking about sixty four billion dollars which is made outside the borders longest and this is due to the nine it's all past one hundred and fifty billion dollars you know which turns into liquid cash for many people who change hands by the time it reaches. middle eastern europe what's the punishment for those involved in. trade all that protection here in pakistan i mean you have capital punishment also we have it's you could have one man also if he was hanged project last year before

that and last year with people have been given this sentence he's still in the process and the conviction rate of the people there and pakistan is about eighty seven percent the least and you can compare it with any other country if the pigs are killed the drug traffickers had their three. hundred people if you catch it the seven are convicted. and this i think is the really high figure and it only happened because of your special courts we do not people are people who did all the special courts rich the governor of boston had agreed for this so the intent and first they're going to box on a stick and other any c.d.'s and pursuits he just me man who was executed in pakistan do you know what he was doing. he was getting be a hater and. and and friends would. and then it was then they were killed and it was stitched into the stomach and credit for this

whole operation from the point of abduction killing all the inference and carrying was done in quarter four hours because after the body was started the k. and that is how he was taking the people and taking that here in the house here in france which i fly three months four months. kill them. and then politically going into the stomach stick your time taken over a life imprisonment of all water one hundred of them are going for life imprisonment fifteen twenty years since another one hundred one hundred of them so at present thought of when i say the seven percent that we're going to read is. a degree of punishment depending on the prey. the see the sense of the crime and the rating system anybody of course can you show you have no problem on their to call people in and get this this drug people are just like this truck and people who

support us in our work that you're doing. your student. section of the city you put into this and the computer board and part. of the we're. getting away from the new deal once because nobody supports them as you know for the first time in history a russian diplomat has had in the un office on drugs and crime what difference will his appointment make to the war on the counter. i missed christopher grove place there when he claimed that he came to talks on the his first visit and during the trial military sugar which was the conference was held in boston we just met him a new interview she also a very fine gentleman and. the feeling that one gets met him and he wants to do something it's a very hoodoo indicated and i'm sure he'd make a difference because he is looking for all nor can it have methods that can

possibly be employed to do and if he were converts i wish him the best of luck and full support from pakistan major general thank you very much for the interview thank you so much. well to. bring you the latest in science and technology from the realms of russian . we've done a few jerks covered. more than
