In the aftermath of blatant incitement to violence in a recent TV programme hosted by Aamir Liaquat Hussain, aired on Jang Group’s Geo TV, an Ahmadi have been target killed in Pakistan by fanatic Sunni and Deobandi Muslims.

On Aamir Liaquat’s morning show “Subh-e-Pakistan” aired on December 22, 2014, Sunni and Deobandi clerics accused Pakistan’s peaceful and persecuted Ahmadi community of backing terrorism in the country while the Shia cleric insensitively nodded to such hate speech. The Sunni and Deobandi clerics labelled Ahmadis as “Jewish agents” and traitors in this inflammatory segment. They urged Muslims to unite against and recognize this “root cause of terrorism” in the country. This is yet another blatant attempt by Geo TV/Jang Group to divert attention from Deobandi takfiri terrorists of Taliban (TTP) and Sipah-e-Sahaba (ASWJ-LeJ) and incite violence against persecuted communities.

It’s not the first time that Jang Group / Geo TV gave airtime to hate clerics who incite hatred and violence against Ahmadis, Shias, Christians and other persecuted communities. In the past, Aamir Liaquat (2008) and other Geo TV anchors including Hamid Mir, Najam Sethi and Saleem Safi have been regularly providing free air time to hate clerics namely Ludhyanvi, Fazl ur Rehman Khalil, Abdul Aziz, Mufti Naeem etc thus enabling massacres of more than 45,000 Sunni Sufis and Barelvis, 22,000 Shias and hundreds of Ahmadis and Christians.

We demand that Aamir Liaquat Hussain and all of those clerics who incited to violence against Ahmadis in his programme be arrested and prosecuted along with Mir Shakil ur Rehman (owner of Jang/Geo), Hamid Mir, Najam Sethi, Saleem Safi and other hate mongers and senior officials of the Geo TV network.

People who were directly involved in hate speech against Ahmadis:

– Hamza Ali Qadri
– Muhammad Arif Shah Awaisi
– Aamir Liaqat Hussain

People who appreciated the hate speech indirectly or remained silent were:

– Muft Imran ul Haq Kalyanvi
– Qari Usman
– Shabir Hussain Meethi
– Muhammad Younis Siddiqui
– Mir Shakil ur Rehman

This hate speech incited violence and resulted in the target killing of a …read more at lubpak.com

  1. Hats off to LUBP. Country is not void of honest and courageous people who call cat a cat. Some how or other this so called Dr again and again finds place to ignite the hatred amongst Pakistanis. Do not get distracted by Hamid Mir. He is also the second side of same coin. Ahamdies do not react violently but tell to this Dr and HM that all innocents are protected by God Almighty and when stick of God moves then such people do not get place to hide. Both were warned by the Almighty in the past but failed to learn lessons. One can only wait and see how now Nature acts if both do not repent their follies.
