ISLAMABAD: A Pakistani citizen, Sawar Satti, has filed a petition with the chair of the Nobel Peace Prize Committee to immediately confiscate the Nobel peace prize awarded to the 14th Dalai Lama (Tenzin Gyatso) for his alleged support to 969 Group and Ma Ba, the ultra-nationalist Buddhist group responsible for the persecution of Muslims in Myanmar.
The 14th Dalai Lama is believed to be closely working with Aung San Suu Kyi’s government in Myanmar to attack the predominantly Muslim Rohingyas in Rakhine, Myanmar. Successive media reports also claim that the Dalai Lama, Buddhist’s spiritual leader, is secretly helping the 969 group in persecuting Rohingya Muslims.
Talking to Pakistan Today, Sawar vowed to take the matter to the International Court of Justice, adding that the copies of the petition will be delivered to the Norwegian Nobel Committee 2016, chair of the Nobel Committee, and deputy chair of the Nobel Committee.
According to the European Rohingya Council (ERC), 3,000 Rohingyas have been killed within three days between August 25 and 27 August this year. Their villages have been burned to the ground. The military claimed that this was an effort to eliminate terrorism.
