No tolerance for those involved in Faisalabad incidents, says minister

LAHORE, Kurrent News: The law regarding the registration of FIR is ambiguous and it needs rectification. Addressing a press conference at the Lahore Press Club here on Wednesday, Minister for Law, Rana Sanaullah Khan said: “The rectification of ambiguity in the FIR law is a federal subject and the Punjab government has written to the federal government in this regard.”

Regarding the Faisalabad incident, he said zero tolerance would be shown towards the people involved in the 12 Rabi-ul-Awwal incidents, which caused loss of life and property. “I appeal Maulana Sahibzada Fazl-e- Karim, Maulana Ahmad Ludhianvi and Maulana Zahir Qasmi to show restraint and tolerance and help the government in dealing with anti-state elements involved in these incidents.î

He said: “Any strike call should not be given since the government has ordered an inquiry into the incident.”

Regarding the allegations of his meetings with terrorists, he said Maulana Ludhianvi bagged 45,000 votes in the last election and questioned if all those voters were terrorists. Earlier, the minister denied that a court had issued orders for registration of an FIR against PML-N MPAs Allah Rakha and Haji Naveed Anjum.
