ISLAMABAD: A video message by students of Jamia Hafsa, in which they invited Islamic State (IS) chief Abu Bakar al-Baghdadi to ‘avenge’ the 2007 military raid on Lal Masjid, has been termed as “waging war” against the state.
A report by the Islamabad police, sent to the interior ministry, says the words spoken by the madressah students in the video released by Shuhada Foundation come under Sections 121/121-A 505(1)b/505(2) of Pakistan penal Code (PPC).
The mentioned sections include attempt to wage war and the abetment to wage war [against the state].
Security agencies have already warned the government that due to his links with known militant groups and his anti-government rhetoric, the resurgence of Lal Masjid cleric Maulana Abdul Aziz poses a security threat to law and order situation in the capital.
They also stressed the need for a check on the growing number of madressahs in Rawalpindi and Islamabad who also have overt and covert links with militant groups.

It may be mentioned that Ihtashamul Haq, one of the trustees of Lal Masjid Shuhada Foundation, filed a petition in the Islamabad High Court (IHC) claiming that following the release of the video message, the capital police have started harassing him.

What good are all those verbal agreements and the constitutional changes when no action is being taken. This Mullah most likely has ties with the Saudis and the Saudis have most likely told the Sharifs that he should not be touched.

Can anyone explain this deference and restraint shown in his case ? He has links with terrorist groups, and he is polluting the minds of the students, and his followers. The concerned authorities should take immediate action against them , instead of just reporting to the interior ministry.
It is a serious matter, which needs to be addressed without any further delay. It is too dangerous to delay such matters. We can only hope against the hope, that something will happen in the right direction.

'Punishable with Death' as mentioned in article 121. This must be carried out to get rid of these people who are using name of religion to inflict maximum damage to the state of Pakistan.

@Syed Ahmed it is because of Musharraf's one step forward, two steps back policy, that we are in the mess we are in.

@numbersnumbers Media are fully complicit. The so called free media and anchors should be audited financially to reveal funding sources so that we can be certain of media's objectivity.
Media moguls should answer for the opposition and hype they sponsored on eg Lal Masjid 2007, PSMprivatization etc.

@Khan
Where is the proof; allegations by interested parties; and foreign pressure? Media reports, anonymous calls are not enough proof. Even there is difference of opinion in US about 9/11, the basis on which we have seen so much suffering. However, anyone involved in terrorism must not be spared. Credible evidence of involvement in terrorism is necessary for ensuring justice. If you have any valid proof, you should appear in court against Maulana Abdul Aziz. It will be great service to the humanity.
Demand for shut down of a Mosque from a Muslim; can't understand.

We readily need Musharraf back to finish his un-finished work.
Please end this gun-culture from my Pakistan.
Make it gun-free country please please Musharraf.
I have even no hope with I-K though he is a better person but Musharraf is the only person who can eradicate this Gun-culture.

And what about Lashkar-e-Tayyaba and Jhangvi? What about Hafiz Saeed and his likes?
If you dont take action again these elements as well, then again you would be looking at terrorism from a selective, narrow-mindset, and differentiating between a good terrorist and a bad terrorist. Again you would be using terrorism and violence as an instrument of state policy, and you are not sincere in your quest to get pakistan rid of violence.
Again, you are going to keep nurturing snakes in your backyard, and hoping that they will bite only your neighbors. Again, you would be on a wrong path and you will pay for it later on.

Ex president Musharraf must be awarded Sitara e imtiaz for his lal masjid operation. All political parties heads may be sentenced to death for favoring and protecting lal masjid and its keepers. Pakistan army must bestow some extra reward to their ex general for saving Islamabad from pakistani Daash lead by Maulana Abdul Aziz. In 2013 immediately after assuming power, Nawaz sharif sent one of his ministers to Maulana Abdul aziz and begged him to lodge FIRs against his foe Musharraf and the later followed his advice. We all know that among many false FIRs, there is one from Lal Masjid militants.

A military coup followed by a care taker government led by Gen. Pervaiz Musharaf is the only answer to Pakistan' problems which are all related to terrorism in one way or the other. None of the politicians will risk taking on these rogues, and we have proof of that in formation of military courts. We cannot count on IK anymore. He is done and dusted..practically.
