President of All Pakistan Muslim League (APML) General (Retd) Pervez Musharraf said Monday that no one was allowed to attack the sanctity of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
“Those who have made the blasphemous movie have played with the emotions of 1.5 billion Muslim population of the world,” the ex-president said.
Addressing a gathering in Khairpur from Dubai via video link, the former president of Pakistan denounced the loss of more than 20 innocent lives and the damage done to property on the occasion of ‘Youm-e-Ishq-e-Rasool’.
He urged upon the UN to make laws in order to prevent any practice that might hurt feelings of a religious group.
About the problems faced by the people, he noted the prices of consumer items of daily use were soaring high, unemployment had made it difficult for the poor to earn livelihood and the recent floods had also played havoc with the common man’s life. “But the government has done nothing for the welfare of its people,” he maintained.
Referring to the earthquake of 2005, Pervez Musharraf said his government had invited 76 donor countries to Pakistan. “They gave a $ 6 billion aid to Pakistan but because of the current government’s corruption, no country is willing to make donations for the flood relief work,” he observed. Barrister Muhammad Ali Saif, Anwar Ali Shah, Sehem Ali Dada, Ghulam Murtaza Raja, Ghulam Mustafa Khaskheli, Chaudhary Muhammad Ashraf and Qirat Zaidi also addressed the gathering.
