Protesters belonging to various religious parties and groups gathered outside the Karachi Press Club (KPC) on Saturday to protest against the death sentence awarded to Mumtaz Qadri, who had killed Governor Punjab Salman Taseer earlier this year.

 

The activists, who belonged to the Sunni Tehreek (ST) and the Fidayane-e-Khatma-e-Nabuwat (FKM), blocked the road in front of the KPC. Some held aloft banners criticising the government, while others shouted slogans demanding Qadri’s immediate release.

 

Although Section 144 was imposed in the city, police ignored the protesters. Police said no arrests were made and the protesters dispersed peacefully.

 

Similar but smaller protest rallies were held in other areas of the city, demanding the immediate release of Qadri, who killed Taseer after the governor had spoken of the need to reform the country’s controversial blasphemy law.

 

Hundreds of supporters of the Sunni Tehreek gathered outside press club and shouted slogans against the government for its “biased policy”.

 

Shahid Ghori, central leader of the ST, rejecting the capital punishment handed down to Qadri by a court, said that if the government did not implement the blasphemy law, then thousands of Mumtaz Qadris would emerge. He said that the government must explain why the entire state machinery came into action to get a non-Muslim, Raymond Davis, released but why “a person who had love for the last Prophet (PBUH)”, Mumtaz Qadri, could not be released after the payment of Diyat to the heirs of Taseer.

 

Ghori announced that the ST would pay Rs200 million as blood money to the legal heirs of Taseer. He alleged that the slain governor had used “sacrilegious remarks” against religion but no action had been taken against him by the government.

 

“If the state does not take action against people who use derogatory remarks against sacred personalities then obviously people would take the law into their hands for their love for them and Qadri had set this example for rest of the people.”

 

He said the ST believed in the rule of law but they would not accept “any anti-Islamic decision”, and asked the government to play its role for the release of Qadri.

 

The Fidayan-e-Khatm-e-Nabuwat announced it would continue the protest till Qadri was released. This was announced at a protest demonstration staged outside the KPC by the central leaders. They also threatened that if Qadri was hanged supporters of the FKM would launch a countrywide protest against the government.

 

Meanwhile, Jamiat Ulema Pakistan leader Dr Sahibzada Abul Khair Muhammad Zubair also condemned Qadri’s conviction.

ISLAMABAD - Scores of activists and workers of Jamiat-e-Ulama-e-Pakistan Islamabad and Islamic Students Federation on Saturday blocked the main IJ Principal Road for an hour at Faizabad in protest against the death sentence awarded to Mumtaz Qadri in former Punjab Governor Salman Taseer’s murder case.

The protesters belonging to various religious seminaries, led by Hafiz Muhammad Idrees and Maulana Muhammad Aslam Jalali, were holding banners and placards inscribed with slogans in favour of Mumtaz Qadri. They burnt tyres and blocked the road, suspending traffic for about an hour. The protesters demanded the government release Mumtaz Qadri at once.

The protest caused a great inconvenience to the commuters and, especially to patients, as the road was blocked and traffic of all kinds was suspended.

The enraged protesters warned the government that if Mumtaz Qadri was not released, they would be left with no option but to launch countrywide rallies and strikes. They also asked the government to implement the law of Tahaffuz-e-Namoos-e-Risalat in the country. Later, the protesters dispersed peacefully.

Staff Report Sunday, 2 Oct 2011 1:52 am | Comments (2) RAWALPINDI: Supporters of Mumtaz Qadri shout slogans as they stop the progress of a police vehicle during a protest outside Adiyala Jail after the court announced the death sentence for Salmaan Taseer’s murderer. afp ISLAMABAD/LAHORE - Hundreds of activists of Sunni Tehreek on Saturday went on a rampage in Rawalpindi and Lahore following the announcement of the death penalty for Mumtaz Qadri, the self-confessed murderer of former Punjab governor Salmaan Taseer. Qadri’s supporters gathered outside Adiyala Jail during the hearing on Saturday and took to the streets soon after the court announced the verdict. They denounced the court decision and chanted slogans against the government, court and the United States. “This decision was made to please the Jewish lobby,” said Sahibzada Ataur Rehman, a leader of the Sunni Tehreek. “Don’t push us towards violence, because we’re ready to give our lives for this,” said Shahid Ghauri, another Sunni Tehreek leader, as he addressed the crowd outside the jail. The protesters were of the view that a thousand Mumtaz Qadris would be born by punishing one Mumtaz Qadri. Qadri’s supporters later gathered at Liaqat Park, where former prime minister Benazir Bhutto was murdered, and tore several of her posters hoisted around the site. They also announced to call a wheel jam protest for next Friday. The angry, stick-wielding protesters also tried forcing closure of shops, but dispersed peacefully sometime later. Scores of activists and workers of Jamiat Ulema-e-Pakistan Islamabad and Islamic Students Federation also blocked the main IJ Principal Road for an hour at Faizabad to protest the death sentence awarded to Qadri. The situation also turned bitter in Lahore with some religious leaders announcing Rs 5 million as head money on the judge who announced the verdict against Qadri. Hundreds of protesters rallied from Data Darbar to Faisal Chowk on The Mall, forcing the closure of shops along The Mall, Hall Road and other markets in the area. The sit-in at Faisal Chowk continued late into the evening, causing severe hardships for citizens. Addressing the protesters, religious leaders demanded Qadri’s immediate release. Sunni Tehreek Divisional President Mujahid Abdul Rasool Khan vowed to challenge the sentence in a higher court. He said Qadri was a hero and a true lover of the Holy Prophet (PBUH). He said if Raymond Davis could be released under the pretext of Diyaat, why not Qadri.
