Salmaan Taseer Murder Case


    It has been reported that the Anti Terrorism Court 11 charged Malik Mumtaz Qadri with terrorism and murder of late Punjab Governor Salmaan Taseer. This session was held behind closed doors in the Adila jail. The judge had examined the reports presented by Qadri's laywer and said that the accused had apparently committed murder and terrorism. 

    Qadri in his defence, told the court that he had acted on the directives of our Holy Book  and the teachings of our Holy Prophet (peace be upon him). He said that he killed Salmaan Taseer over his call to reform the blasphemy law.

    The next hearing will be held on Feb 26th when over 40 witnesses will be presented in the court and their statements would be recorded. The court will hear the case on a weekly basis.

    Qadri has had his share of fans who consider him a hero for his act. Rally's and marches have been carried out in his support. In fact, hundreds of lawyers showed interest in fighting for his case, while Salmaan Taseer's family struggled to find a decent lawyer and maulvis who would offer the last prayer to Salmaan Taseer. 

    We will report on the case as it proceeds.

Hardly Any Light Here



    I thought of writing updates on my city and country but they are mostly so dull and saddening and hardly anything that can make us proud. 

    Anyhow, recently civil society organizations wanted to a memorial reference for Salmaan Taseer at the Arts Council in Karachi but they were suddenly told that the permission was withheld. People say it is because of the pressure from the right wing forces. 

    And on another front, the anti-terrorism court also announced that no arrest warrants will be issued against the two clerics whose fiery speeches provoked the elite force body guard to assassinate the former Punjab Governor Salmaan Taseer. 

    By the way, the new governor is absolutely terrible with no class at all. People are  only questioning didn't Zardari have a better choice. Of course, one can't have another Salmaan Taseer but still this man is not even worth talking about. Thus, there is hardly any light here.
