Some elements want to abolish Constitution, claims Siraj
[DAWN] Jamaat-e-Islami
...The Islamic Society, founded in 1941 in Lahore by Maulana Sayyid Abul Ala Maududi, aka The Great Apostosizer. The Jamaat opposed the independence of Bangladesh but has operated an independent branch there since 1975. It maintains close ties with international Mohammedan groups such as the Moslem Brotherhood. the Taliban, and al-Qaeda. The Jamaat's objectives are the establishment of a pure Islamic state, governed by Sharia law. It is distinguished by its xenophobia, and its opposition to Westernization, capitalism, socialism, secularism, and liberalist social mores...
emir Sirajul Haq
...current head of the Pak Jamaat-e-Islami. Siraj was born in 1962 and entered politics shortly after that...
on Monday claimed that some hidden elements were conspiring to get the 1973 Constitution abolished, as it had declared Ahmadis as non-Moslems.

Addressing a public meeting at Khazana here after inaugurating a government higher secondary school, the JI chief said that leaders of Jamaat-e-Islami were being hanged in Bangladesh but the Pak government kept a criminal silence over the executions.

He demanded of the prime minister to take up the issue with the Bangladeshi government.

Sirajul Haq said that the country was passing through a critical period and it was need of the hour that the nation stood united to steer the country out of the quagmire. "The situation in Islamabad is still not stable," he said, adding the government should speed up electoral reforms process.

The JI leader said that political jirga played vital role in resolving political impasse in Islamabad during the last two months.

Sirajul Haq claimed that the nation needed Sharia where every citizen had equal rights and duties and led a peaceful and prosperous life.

He said the JI's three-day congregation at Lahore on Nov 21 would prove as the first step towards implementation of Sharia in Pakistain.

Meanwhile,
...back at the precinct house, Sergeant Maloney wasn't buying it. It was just too pat. The whole thing smelled phony, kind of like a dead mackeral but without the scales...
the JI chief along with provincial minister for finance Muzafar Syed inaugurated development projects of road repair, water supply schemes and electrification of villages worth Rs10 million.
