City police request blocking mobile services on Imam Hussain (RA)’s Chehlum

The Capital City police have submitted an application to the Punjab government for suspending cellular services in the city on account of Hazrat Imam Hussain’s (RA) Chehlum. The application calls for suspending services in Lahore from 9am to 12am tomorrow (Thursday) in order to prevent any acts of terrorism on the Chehlum of Hazrat Imam Hussain (RA). Shias take out processions every year on the 40th day of Imam Hussain’s (RA) death and have previously been targeted by terrorists. In November on Ashura, at least five people were killed and 11 sustained injuries in twin blasts that occurred in Karachi’s Orangi Town.
