'Darbar attacks just to defame Islam'

LAHORE - Spokesman of Majlis Wahdat-e-Muslimeen Pakistan Maulana Hassan Zafar Naqvi has said that terrorists are targeting the sects of Muslims according to their plans just to defame Islam. Addressing a press conference here on Monday at Lahore Press Club, Maulana Hassan Zafar Naqvi said the terrorists who targeted the Data Darbar shrine, had also been involved in the targeting killing in Karachi and Quetta. Punjab Law Minister Rana Sana Ullah is patronising the terrorists just for the sake of votes but its results could trigger bloodshed in country. He demanded the CM Punjab to kick out such elements from the Parliament who are backing the terrorists, he added. He condemned the suicide attacks on Data Darbar Shrine and demanded the government to ensure the foolproof security at the shrines of country, saying the entry of devotees at Bibi Pak Daman should also be allowed because such steps of stoppage of visits by the devotees according to the government orders are the ample proof of the failure of the govt. The spokesman also added it was duty of the government to ensure the security at the shrines instead of taking steps of banning visits of the devotees at shrines.
