Pakistan Secular Forum chairman condemns attacks on Ahmadiyya Muslims

The Pakistan Secular Forum (PSF) chairman, Dilshad Bhutto, has strongly condemned the attacks on mosques and homes of the Ahmadi community in Pakistan.

In a statement sent to Ahmadiyya Times, Bhutto said that the government has failed to protect Ahmadiyya Muslim Community and religious extremist and fundamentalist groups are targeting Ahmadis every day. "They are killing Ahmadis, attacking and burning down their mosques and homes."

"Such terrorism is a heinous crime against humanity and a serious conspiracy against Pakistan," he added.

Although constitution of Pakistan provides equal rights to all citizens,but, Bhutto says, the religious fundamentalist elements are misusing the blasphemy laws against minorities and imposing their own Sharia and belief.

Bhutto demanded from the government and lawmakers that they should review and consider changing discriminatory and hateful laws against Ahmadis.
