‘Fatwa’ justifies Musharraf’s murder* Declaration calls for former president’s murder for killing Bugti, other innocent people, including Jamia Hafsa students
By Mohammad Zafar
QUETTA: Political leaders and religious scholars made a unanimous declaration justifying the murder of former president Gen (r) Pervez Musharraf in revenge for killing Akbar Bugti and other innocent people, including students of Jamia Hafsa in Islamabad during his government.
The Jamhoori Watan Party of Talal Akbar Bugti sponsored the conference on Saturday in which prominent religious scholars and political leaders participated and signed a joint declaration against Musharraf justifying his killing. The Jamaat-e-Islami, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam, Majlis Wahdat Muslimeen Pakistan, Shia Ulema Council Balochistan, Tanzeem-e-Islam Pakistan, JUI-S and religious scholars participated in the conference. The theme of the conference was ‘If Salman Rushdi deserved to be killed, why not Musharraf, who was responsible for killing innocent people and also of desecration of the holy Quran at Jamia Hafsa’.
The speakers criticised Musharraf for his unpardonable crimes against humanity and held him solely responsible for killing thousands of Balochs in a military operation, students of Jamia Hafsa, violation of the constitution, making changes in the Hudood Ordinance, insulting Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan, handing over Dr Aafia Siddiqui and Abdul Salam Asif to the US, violating the sanctity of mosques, and other unpardonable crimes against society and the state.
