Lahore, Sep 24: Nearly 75 graves and minarets of two worship places belonging to the Ahmadi minority community have been demolished by police and radical Islamists in Pakistan’s Punjab province, a member of an organisation representing the minority community said on Sunday. Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya Pakistan officer Amir Mahmood told PTI,
“Police under the pressure of Tehreek-i-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) desecrated 74 graves of Ahmadis by destroying their tombstones in Daska city of Sialkot district of Punjab, some 100kms from Lahore,” he said.
Tension still gripped Daska as the TLP threatened to raze the minarets of a historic worship place of the Ahmadi community. (PTI)
