Jamaatud Dawa, now going after Ahmadiyya to regain their reputation and hold in society. This is an old trick of the Mullah, read below to see how and why it is done.
The Hindu : Opinion / Leader Page Articles : Understanding Pakistan’s response to Mumbai
Different faces, same recipe of Punjabi politicians and Mullahs ganged up to strengthen their hold on society.
Some details have emerged as to the background of this incident;
A Statement by the Asian Human Rights Commission
**PAKISTAN: Four children and one man have been arbitrarily arrested and charged with blasphemy at the request of Muslim radicals **
Five persons belonging to the Ahmadi sect of Islam, four of them children, have been arrested for desecrating the name of the last prophet of Islam (peace be upon him), and charged under a law that can only be met with the death penalty.
…
According to our reports, the boys are students from grades nine and ten of the Superior Academy, Chak no. 172, TDA in Layyah district. They are Muhammad Irfan (14), son of Muhammad Mukhtar, Tahir Imran (16), son of Abdul Ghaffar, Tahir Mehmood (14), son of Muhammad Aslam and Naseer Ahmed (14), son of Nasrullah. A Mr Mubashar Ahmed, 45 has also been arrested.
The five were taken from their houses on the night of January 28, 2009 and taken into custody. **Raiding police officials told their families that they would just be detained for 24 hours to appease a number of Muslim fundamentalists, who had recently renewed the long-waged ideological assault on members of the Ahmadi sect, a minority sect of Islam **.
…
However after four hours in custody, charges were filed against all five under section 295-C, for desecrating the name of the last prophet. After contacting Dr Muhammad Azam, the district police officer (DPO) of Layyah, family members were told that the police were under pressure from fundamentalists to act against the children. If he did not arrest them, Azam said, the group had threatened to close down the whole city and attack the houses of Ahmedi sect members. Worried about civilian deaths, the officer arrested the children.
…
**Inspector Khalid Rauf, station head officer (SHO) of Kot Sultan police satation, Layyah district, Punjab province, told the AHRC that police have still not initiated the investigation, but that the gravity of the case against Islam justified arresting the children first. He said the police do not know of any substantial evidence that links the four students with the crime. **
Most bemusing, is the fact that the teenagers that were arrested are not students of the Gulzare Madina Mosque, where the graffiti was found, and neither they or Mubashar live anywhere near it. The boys are students of a private English medium school.
According to an Ahmadi spokesperson, a number of attempted assaults and attacks have taken place against sect members in the area, during the last week.
The police have not made any investigation into the threats sent in, to cause harm to Layyah civilians. Neither have they made investigations into the five detainees¡¦ guilt. According to an amendment made by parliament in 2004 in section 295-C of the constitution, police officials are obligated to thoroughly investigate accusations of blasphemy before presenting criminal charges. The aim of this amendment was to reduce the scope of the blasphemy laws, which are still widely and frequently abused, and met with the death penalty.
At this juncture the AHRC would like to question who Pakistan¡¦s police are meant to serve: a few civilian religious groups with little regard for the law, and an agenda of violent persecution? Or do they serve the rule of law and the people of Pakistan? Their actions and admissions in this case point to the former. That children can now be made scapegoats by the police, and high ranking police officers themselves can played with like puppets, is a disgrace to the nation.
The Punjab government has lately claimed to be liberal and progressive. Yet they show little control over the province¡¦s radical religious groups, which flout the law and hold Pakistan society hostage in the name of Islam. When children can be arrested under laws that carry only the death penalty, with no evidence given and no investigation done, there can be no doubt that the systems of this province have broken down.
The AHRC urges the government of President Asif Zardari to immediately release the illegally detained prisoners. Instead they should turn their attention to the dependence of Punjab Police on fundamentalist Islamic groups and the implementation of the rule of law in the province, including the amendment in the blasphemy law made by parliament.

Re: Mob tries to burn houses of Ahmadis in Layyah
Rather pathetic and stupid of the police to do so. Frankly discriminatory laws benefit very few and hurt way too many. Though I have a question if any can answer, why don't Ahmadis just declare themselves a seperate religion? That would take the wind out of the sails of these crazy idiots.

JuD and Mullah maloons will not stop regardless of what Ahmadis do.
Mizaies also known as qadyanies (Ahmedies) cook up stories to get fake assylum cases. Their Head quareter is in London and the daughter offcies are in Shanty towns like Rabwa in Pakistani Punjab.
The have printing presses and they publish fake news of murder, rape etc etc to have assylums in countries like Canada and UK but guess what? when their assylum case gets accepted.....the first thing they do is...they visit Pakistan...........lol.....
Story makers!

Once again you are writing drivel based on your own personal racist biases and assumptions. Do you know this for a certainity? If so prove it.

Gosh, you have no point but a lot of anger...
Are Ahmadis the only ones being persecuted by these sunni terrorists? Shias, non-muslim, women, people who shave beards, girls who go to school, women who want to work, innocent bystanders..are all being killed, persecuted or blown to pieces by these terrorists.
However there is no need for Ahmadis to call themselves anything else as they are Muslim. Sure you can persecute them for that but then that's why everyone is so much critical of your faith these days.

o yaar topic kuch orr hai discussion or...ye to wohi baat ho gai...
mien pyar hoon kisi orr ka
mujhe chahta koi orr hai
try to stay on the topic.... you may say:
I agree with this persecution or dont and probably give your personal views.
B you might have gauged the situation correctly … a team of HRCP went to this village and they had this to report
The complainant said in the first information report (FIR), “Since these Ahmadis are the only non-Muslims coming to the mosque, therefore they must have committed the offence.”
The HRCP team found that elements belonging to banned extremist organisations, and that a relative of a member of National Assembly (MNA) from the area had pressured the police to register a case. “It is clear that a local politician has also used his influence” to book the Ahmadis, the commission’s report said.
Now just wait for some LEGAL Muslim to dig up some sectarian/religious motivated voilent incidents from India … Me being an Ahmadi can say as we already labled as Agents/Spies of the West … i guess u know what i mean
Guess how many LEGAL Muslims have been Displaced, Injured or even Killed by Ahmadis !!!
So much for tolerant Islam being taught and practiced

well then in that case they will be called as ahmadi rather than non-muslims and what not.

Strange that it's ur socalled LEGAL Muslims Police and ur socalled Legal Muslim Press use to register Cases and put them in the news ....... not us
By now almost everyone knows what JuD, Sipah-e-Sihaba, Jaish-e-Mohammad and gangs r up too ..... namely propagating TRUE ISLAM right ?????
A shame that PPL still live in a fools paradise ...... u can simply turn away and make claims at us faking news and so on but unfortunately for u the bare truth tells a whole different story ..... just go through the news (not about Ahmadis) about those who lost their loved ones bcoz some socalled jehadi want a fast path to Jannat.
Ignorance is a bliss

progeny of unchaste women...theses mothers are crying that they never had given birth to these
Re: Mob tries to burn houses of Ahmadis in Layyah
zobia,
so what? Shall I tell you the stories of Non-Ahmadies who told the polices where to find Ahmadies which are allegedly illegaly in Frannkfurt, Germany? Not only Ahmadies came to Germany, America, England...
You show so much of disrespect towards people and claim that you do something for your Prophet? How come? The Jews said to him As Samu Alaika to him, but he rather prayed for them!
Shall I tell you about the other Non-Ahmadi Pakistanis who where ready to overflood Germany? Shall I lay down all the facts of Ahmadiyyat? And what you and your 'snip' not all tried to kill them, rape them? burn them, dishonor them! I will not, because you will not bear the truth...
You and your cruel and heart breaking comments now and in the past really can make a Ahmadi wish to be never have been born in this f'cked up world!
Strange that it's ur socalled LEGAL Muslims
Correct term is Sarkari Musalman :) .... those who depend on certificate from sarkar (instead of God) to be considered muslim
