Pakistan categorizes Imran Chishti’s threats as an act of Terrorism; Chishti arrested under non-bailable ATA charges

NEW DELHI, India—On January 5, the Pakistani Punjab province’s police arrested Imran Chishti after registering an FIR No. 6/2020 against him under sections 295-A/ 290/291/341/506/148/149, 6 sound system / 7 Anti-Terrorism Act at Nankana Sahib police station.

Sharing the development over Twitter, the Punjab CM’s focal person (digital media) Azhar Mashwani said that Imran Chishti won’t be able to secure bail as he has been booked under  the Anti-Terrorism Act.  

It is noteworthy here that Imran Chishti incited a mob Muslim persons to pelt stones at Gurdwara Sri Janam Asthan, Nankana Sahib and had uttered highly inflammatory words against the Sikhs and Gurdwara Sri Janam Asthan Nankana Sahib on January 3.

Imran is an elder brother of Mohammad Hassan, who is accused of abducting and forcibly marrying Sikh girl Jagjit Kaur after getting her converted to Islam in August last year.

The Pakistan government has set an example by categorizing the Imran Chishti’s threats of converting Gurdwara Sri Nankana Sahib into Ghulaman-e-Mustafa as an act of Terrorism despite being an Islamic state. This is in contrast to India, where such threats are passed to the minorities by radical Hindu elements almost every day and the radical Hindus, who demolished Babri Masjid, are roaming freely without any fear even after 3 decades.

  1. Sad to hear such incidents. Attack on a Gurudwara is rightfully an act of terrorism.
    According to the news the girl converted by her free will. If not the culprit should also be punished harshly for making a mockery of ISLAM.
    Islam does not allow anyone to accept ISLAM without his or her own free will, full knowledge and thorough understanding of their choice.
    which ever faith one is born, be aware of professional priests and politician’s hunger to recruit for their congregation. By enlarge they lack honesty and integrity.

  2. One single man has single handily ruined the Sikh and Muslim relationships and he deserves the severe punishment allowed under the law. I hope if he had any accomplices then they are also arrested.
