MULTAN: Shabab-e-Milli member Saad Khurshid Kanju told a youth meeting on Tuesday, âWe are against the humiliation of women and we have asked companies including multinationals to remove posters depicting them. We defaced those posters that were not removed.â Mr Kanju said cable operators should censor programmes that showed vulgar and indecent material by July 17. Mr Kanju said, âWe will protest against cinema owners, as well as video, DVD and CD makers and sellers who deal in obscene movies.â Defending the defacing of billboards in the city, Jamaat-e-Islami member Rao Zafar Iqbal said, âThe law does not allow anyone to spoil society through pornography and the use of women for business.â
| But the law does allow you to deface other people's property? Some intricacy of shariah, no doubt... |
The Shabab-e-Milli launched its mission against obscenity on June 6 at Gaddafi Chowk. The police arrested 27 Shabab-e-Milli activists for setting a circus on fire and defacing billboards, but they were released on bail.
| If there's no punishment for it, where's the incentive to stop? |
