FAISALABAD: Ulema and several religious personalities, including Caritas Pakistan and Inter-faith Diocesan Commission chairman Bishop Joseph Arshad, demanded immediate action against Charlie Hebdo, a French magazine, for publishing blasphemous caricatures. They asked the United Nations and the European Union to form a law under which strict punishment could be awarded to the blasphemers belonging to any religion or sect.
Addressing a press conference at Press Club, Bishop Joseph Arshad, Father Ijaz Hayat, Father Nisar Barkat, Father Iftikhar Moon, Pir Muhammad Ibrahim Sialvi, Maulana Abdul Samad, Maulana Yousaf Anwar, Qari Hanif Bhatti, Hafiz Muhammad Amjad and Allama Ghulam Akbar Saqi strongly condemned the publication of blasphemous caricatures by a French magazine for the second time, saying it had hurt the sentiments of the Muslims across the world. Bishop Joseph Arshad said that the Christian community stood by the Muslim brothers during this hour of distress. He said that the publication of the blasphemous sketches was in fact the misuse of freedom of expression.
