****KARACHI: **Jibran Nasir and members of the civil society were reportedly arrested after resuming the Shikarpur sit-in outside the CM house in Karachi, pressing the government to take swift action against Ahl-e-Sunnat-wal Jamaat’s (ASWJ) solidarity rally on Kashmir Day. **
Earlier in the day, the ASWJ has also started a sit-in outside the CM House, in continuum of their rally from earlier today.
At the Kashmir Day rally, ASWJ allegedly threatened members of the civil society as well as the Sindh government for unnecessarily terming them a banned organisation.

The civil society’s 31-hour-long protest outside the CM house, from earlier this week, came to an end Tuesday night, after Special Assistant to the Chief Minister on Culture Sharmila Farooqi promised that the provincial government will take stern action against “banned” militant organisations, including ASWJ.

No official notification, however, has been taken out by the home department to outlaw ASWJ.
Speaking to The Express Tribune, “The charter of demands we came with initially has failed. But this time, we won’t stop. We will continue our sit-in till justice is served,” Nasir said.
“We’ll do a hunger strike if we have to. Allowing ASWJ, or any other outfit that incites violence, to carry out political activities openly, is a violation of the law,” he added.

Meanwhile, in Lahore, Jamaat-ud-Dawa, a proscribed militant outfit took out a solidarity rally with Kashmir. The organisation’s leader, Hafiz Saeed, addressed the crowd present.
Jamaat-ud-Dawa was added to the list of banned organisations by the interior ministry.

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

Well this is just retarded.

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

It certainly is. Sind govt is the most incompetent one among all. Thats when you think that no governance is better than poor governance.

My cousins son was among the arrested. Situation in this city and govt. is beyond messed up

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

I hope he's good and comes out asap. The I(not so) govt is saying its a secterian protest not civil society which is wrong as now all sects are united against ASWJ

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

I wish we could have seen such protest in Karachi against fascism of MQM :hinna:

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

Well you know wut, it has happened. Atleast once to my memory done by MQM haqiqi missing members’ families outside press council. Guess wut happened? Few cars appeared and they hit those people badly while picked quite a few of protesters and vanished. Nobody intervened and there was no followup either.
so no i would never want any such protest again, atleast not yet.

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

What does that prove? Who is the real culprit in Karachi. Everyone is afraid of them. Media tags them na-maloom afraad knowing them very well.

Anyways, this current protest / sit-in was resumed just after 24 hours, when the demands like removing slogans of banned organisation from walls of Karachi, require sometime. There was some movement by Sindh government to remove slogans, flags, etc since yesterday and then this protest. People should know that Rome was not built in a day.

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

I hope I'm wrong, but this guy is dead man walking and its only matter of time. If a sitting governor can be assassinated and his assassin is hail as hero by wide section of society what chance does someone like this guy has against religious mafia?

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

This has proved that the Sindh government isn't willing to act against the sectarian mob, and then when some other terrorist act will follow they'll start blaming aliens for that.

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

Well Sindh is ruled by so called liberal party so why is it a surprise?

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

Wow, you have completely white-washed the role of the MQM, and have not even named the biggest killers in Karachi, MQM.

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

:smack: Do I even need to take their name after that description?

Re: Jibran Nasir led Civil society protesters arrested

Busted. Now only BBZ can pardon you of your sins.

Don’t forget the nazrana when you visit londonistan to seek his blessed blessing. Take AP with you to intercede on your behalf. If he somehow gets lost, then all is good.
