Pakistan: Karakoram University’s Shia students rusticated for holding Youm e Hussain (AS)

Biased administration of Karakorum International University rusticated 3 Shia students for life and another 2 for 3 years for their only “sin” that they played leading role to hold Youm-e-Hussain (AS) in the University on Tuesday. Shiite News Correspondent reported here that biased administration of Karakoram International University did not allow the students to hold Youm-e-Hussain (AS) that was to be held to highlight the sacrifices of Imam Hussain (AS) and his comrades in Karbala.

After having been disappointed by repeated refusal to their request, the students held Youm-e-Hussain (AS) on Wednesday. The Yazidi nasbi takfiri elements of outlawed fanatic terrorist outfit Sipah-e-Sahaba staged demonstration outside of the university against the Youm-e-Hussain (AS). It appeared that Yazidi elements got supporters inside the university who rusticated Jamal Haider, President ISO, KIU chapter, Syed Waqar Hussain, President, JSO, KIU Chapter and Sherullah, vice president of the ISO KIU chapter for life. Ex divisional president of the ISO namely Ayub Ansari and Imtiaz Hussain were rusticated for two years. The rustication evoked countrywide opposition and condemnation from Sunni and Shia parties and leaders who demanded of the university administration to rescind their decision.
