Accused family seeks govt protection
Unidentified persons set on fire our house in Buffer Zone Saturda night after levelling allegations against us that we desecrated the Holy Quran and Hadith, but the law enforcement agencies timely intervention saved the house partially.

This was stated by members of a Muslim family Rahil Masood Wasti, Zafar Iqbal and Samreen Masood while addressing a press conference at the Karachi Press Club (KPC) here on Sunday.

Wasti said they were facing trouble after some religious people accused them of committing desecration of the Holy Quran and Hadith, which they never committed.

He said that they were deprived of their house and now could not even dare to enter it after such false allegations.

He said that they had already declared that the incident took place due to a mistake by their illiterate housemaid who swept some pages of the Holy Quran and Hadith outside the house, adding it all happened without their knowledge.

To a query, he replied that some religious and civil society people had also staged protests outside KPC and some other places for our arrest. “These people have also declared us ‘wajibul qatal’ (deserve death),” he said.

He demanded of the government to provide protection to his family because they were not involved in the desecration of the Holy Quran and Hadith papers.
