ISLAMABAD:
Seven months after the National Action Plan originated (NAP), a religious group has announced the decision to ‘hold rallies across Pakistan against all those trying to defame the Army.’
The proscribed group, Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat (ASWJ), also announced to observe the last Friday of Ramazan as the day of solidarity with the armed forces. A rally, ‘Long live Pak Army’ will be held in Karachi on Friday.
Addressing a meeting here on Thursday, the acting president of the group, Sain Ghazi Parial Shah, said the country was facing serious terror threats.
“But it is unfortunate that leaders of political groups are criticising the army and security agencies of our own country.” He said ASWJ was also a victim of terrorism because its leaders and workers lost their lives in targeted killings.
