Rally for Sanas removal

LAHORE A Tuhafaze Namoose Risalat Mahaz rally on Wednesday demanded immediate removal of Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah in order to end terrorism in the province. Addressing the rally, held outside Data Darbar to condemn the Tuesdays terrorist attack in Urdu Bazar, the speakers said the rulers were sitting silent as the terrorists were targeting the people associated with the Ahle Sunnah. Thirteen people were killed and many others injured in the deadly blast by a teenager who blew himself up. TNRM President Razae Mustafa Naqashbandi, Muhammad Ali Naqashbandi, Ziaul Haq, Qari Zawar Bahadur, Atharul Qadri, Khadim Hussain Rizvi, Naeem Noori, Masoodur Rehman and Muhammad Asif led the protest demonstration, largely attended by people from the Ahle Sunnah school of thought. A Quran Khawani for deceased will be held at Data Darbar on Thursday, he said. Meanwhile, the Punjab Government will be responsible for the security of the participants in the Tehfuzz Namoos Risalat Rally to be taken out from Nasir Bagh on January 30, while leaders and workers of PML-Q will take part in the rally in large umbers, says Chaudhary Zaheer-ud-Din, general secretary PML-Q Punjab. In a press statement issued on Wednesday, he while commenting on the Punjab Law Ministers statement regarding foolproof security said that the terrorists could not reach the target if there were foolproof security arrangements. He said that perpetrators of suicide attacks in Lahore and Karachi could not be Muslims, as no Muslim could shed the blood of his brethren.
