A procession was taken out in Thatta which started from Imambargah Boturab and after marching through the main roads converged outside the Thatta press club. Maulana Nazim Ali Azad, Dr Abdul Hussain Shah and Dr Safdar Shah led the protesters.
Speaking on the occasion, they criticized the attitude of Sindh chief minister for not meeting Ulema who waited outside the CM house for two hours. They condemned the threats which the chief minister gave to Maulana Mirza Yousuf Hussain on phone.
They alleged that Arbab Rahim had no manners and he was 'misfit' and 'unreliable' man to be entrusted a responsible slot of the Sindh chief minister. They demanded a judicial inquiry against the chief minister for fomenting religious hatred.
