TLP vice emir 'arrested' for inciting violence against CJP Isa
|
[GEO.TV] Tehrik-e-Labbaik Pakistain (TLP) Vice Emir Pir Zaheerul Hasan Shah, who had gone in hiding in Okara, has been arrested after being booked for inciting violence against Chief Justice of Pakistain (CJP) Qazi Faez Isa, sources told Geo News on Monday.
Shah's arrest comes after a case was lodged against him for a speech made during a protest rally outside the Lahore Press Club during a demonstration against the SC verdict in the Mubarak Sani case.
The case was lodged in Lahore's Qila Gujjar Sing cop shoppe on behalf of Station House Officer (SHO) Hammad Hussain against the TLP leader and 1,500 party workers for issuing death threats to the chief justice.
The FIR includes provisions of the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) and those related to spreading religious hatred and anarchy, pressuring and threatening the higher judiciary, interference in state affairs, obstructing in performance of legal duties and others.
It is to be noted that apart from TLP, Jamaat Ulema-e-Islam

) and Wafaqul Madaris-ul-Arabiya (WMA) have also voiced their opposition to the apex court's verdict in the said case.
The opposition comes despite the clarification issued by the apex court on Friday which said that the court's verdict clearly states that no one can be a Moslem without having faith in the finality of prophethood of Prophet Muhammad (PTUI!).
'STATE WON'T ALLOW FATWAS CALLING FOR MURDER'
Earlier in the day, the federal government announced that it won't allow malicious propaganda against the CJP and will take strict action against those responsible for it.
"The state will not allow anyone to issue a fatwa calling for someone's murder," Defence Minister Khawaja Asif said in a presser in Islamabad.
Flanked by Planning and Development Minister Ahsan Iqbal, the defence minister, while referring to the propaganda campaign hurled against the chief justice following the SC verdict in the Mubarak Sani case, said that an attempt is being made to use religion for bloodshed for vested political interests.
"There has been malicious propaganda about the chief justice and he has been targeted for a long time," said the federal minister.
He said that an attempt is being made to silence a voice which has set a tradition of speaking truth, reiterating that the law will take its course.
Asif further said that the state will now take action because CJP Isa has been targeted for a long time, adding that baseless accusations cannot be made against someone.
"There should be supremacy of Constitution in the country and justice should prevail. [The state] will not accept dictation aimed towards securing personal interests in the name of politics," he added.
