ISLAMABAD, Pakistan - Female Islamic students on an anti-vice drive have abducted an alleged brothel owner and have locked her up at their fundamentalist seminary in the Pakistani capital, police said Wednesday.
Authorities have arrested four of the seminary's teachers in connection with the abduction. With jihadist songs playing on the loudspeakers of a neighboring mosque, about 200 students staged a protest at the school Wednesday demanding their release.
Abdul Rashid Ghazi, vice principal at the seminary, threatened jihad, or holy war, unless the teachers were freed by 4 p.m. He said this was in line with a religious decree issued by the Lal Masjid mosque's prayer leader - Ghazi's brother, Abdul Aziz.
"These vulgarities (brothels) are destroying society and the decree says that in this situation, jihad is the only way," he said, without specifying what that would entail. "They (police) have arrested our respected, veiled teachers for a corrupt woman."
A police officer confirmed that a number of the Jamia Hafsa seminary's teachers had been arrested Wednesday for holding an alleged brothel owner known as Aunty Shamim.
Authorities are holding negotiations with the school administrators to hand over the woman to the police but they are "being unreasonable," the officer said on condition of anonymity because he was unauthorized to make comments to the media.
"They have taken the law into their hands," the officer said.
Ghazi confirmed that some of Jamia Hafsa's students had abducted Shamim in a raid of the alleged brothel late Tuesday, along with "a few" of her employees. He said Shamim had promised to close the brothel, but they still had her locked up in a room at the seminary.
Since January, hundreds of its female seminary students have staged a sit-in at a municipal children's library next door, to protest authorities' demolition of mosques that have encroached on public land. They are refusing to vacate the library until all the mosques are rebuilt.

Jamia Hafsa students start drive against video centres
ISLAMABAD: Girl students of Jamia Hafsa launched a campaign against video centres in the federal capital on Monday.
“Students of Jamia Hafsa and Lal Masjid have started making rounds of various markets of the city, including the Melody Market, as part of their drive against video shops. We tried to convince the shopkeepers to leave this business and all of them have promised to quit,” said a statement by the seminary.
The statement said that girl students also entered a ‘brothel’. “Women teachers and students found fully made-up girls in the brothel, while they (the people in the brothel) were disturbed to see burqa-clad (veiled) girls,” the statement claimed.
The students claimed that the manager of the brothel threatened them, while they told her that “they only fear Allah”. “We will not back off because of your threats. We don’t fear anyone,” the students told the manager. They said that the brothel owner had also tried to intimidate their teachers over the phone.
The students claim that the area’s people also had complaints against the brothel. “A complaint centre has been set up in Lal Masjid. Also, students of Jamia Hafsa have set up a separate complaint centre for women in the seminary. People are requested to join hands with us in purging Islamabad of evil deeds,” the statement said.
Sources said the seminary students had planned to make surprise raids on markets to check adulteration. Aabpara Police Station House Officer Safeer Hussain Bhatti told Daily Times that no complaint had so for been lodged against the seminary students and the police would take action only after a complaint.

Karachi, 29 Jan. (AKI) - (by Syed Saleem Shahzad) - Following last week's deadly bomb blasts in the Pakistani cities of Islamabad and Peshawar, well-placed sources in the capital told Adnkronos International (AKI) that president General Pervez Musharraf asked the Pakistani Air Force to carry out an air strike on the largest Islamic seminary or madrassa in Islamabad where two of leading ideologues of the Pakistani Taliban, Ghazi Abdul Rasheed and Maulana Abdul Aziz, are holed up after attempts to flush them out turned into a fiasco. Pakistan conducted an air strike on a suspected militant training camp in South Waziristan on 16 January - after intense US pressure - putting an end to a peace deal between the two Waziristans and the Pakistani government. The revenge promised by local pro-Taliban militants came quickly, with an apparent sucide attack on 22 January in North Waziristan, killing at least three members of Pakistan's security forces.
The clerics who appear to have riled president Musharraf, are brothers Ghazi Abdul Rasheed and Maulana Abdul Aziz, the sons of the slain Maulana Abdullah, one of the oligarchs of the resistance against the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan.
Both are controversial religious figures and there have been direct requests from Washington and London for their arrests. They are both wanted by Pakistan's interior ministry and cannot leave the premises of the Lal Masjid, the central mosque in Islamabad, as there are warrants for their arrest.
However Pakistani security agencies' efforts to arrest them on a number of occasion have failed - in part because of resistance within the political establishment and of fear of the popular reaction in Islamabad and beyond.
This time though, sources told AKI that Musharraf reportedly told a gathering of senior officials at a meeting in Rawalpindi: "I don’t want them in federal capital. If you are unable to arrest them…shoot them."
Those attending reportedly disagreed categorically with the idea of an air strike in the capital city, and pointed out that the students of the influential clerics have already staged a powerful protest in the past few days against the demolition of two mosques in Islamabad and they are a force to be reckoned with.
"Yes, I confirm that we have received direct threats from high-level authorities within the military establishment that General Pervez Musharraf is personally very disgruntled with our seminaries in the federal capital and since the authorities failed to take any action against us…he wants to kill us both," said Ghazi Abdul Rasheed, in a telephone interview with Adnkronos International (AKI) from Islamabad.
Soon after 7 July 2005 bomb blasts on the London transport system which killed 56 people, Pakistani security forces carried out a massive crackdown on madrassas including those in Islamabad run by Maulana Abdul Aziz and Maulana Ghazi Abdul Rasheed.
However the female students at the seminary for girls not only resisted the crackdown but the entire operation also turned out to be very embarrassing for the Pakistani government. Many female students were seriously injured by policemen and several police officers were wounded by the girls.
The authorities opted to avoid a direct clash with those running the seminaries. However, Pakistan's interior ministry issued a warrant for the arrest of both brothers who were then forced to take refuge inside the seminary and the mosque.
Ghazi Abdul Rasheed and Maulana Abdul Aziz first made headlines when they issued a religious decree in 2004 against Pakistani armed forces personnel fighting against al-Qaeda militants in South Waziristan. The decree stated that Pakistani soldiers fighting South Waziristan did not deserve a Muslim funeral or burial at Muslim cemeteries in the event that they were killed while fighting in the tribal region which lies on the Pakistan-Afghan border.
The religious decree was well-received in extremist circles and 500 other religious scholars signed the edict. The decree turned out to be a major reason why many officers and soldiers in the Pakistani army refused to fight militants in Waziristan.
"We trust in Allah. We always abide by the law," Abdul Rasheed told AKI. "We will not retaliate even though we know the designs of General Pervez Musharraf.
