5,000 protest anti-Quran film
KARACHI: About 5,000 supporters from a religious group rallied in Karachi on Saturday to condemn anti-Islam film ‘Fitna’ by Dutch politician Geert Wilders, and blasphemous caricatures of the holy Prophet (PBUH) in Danish newspapers, witnesses said. The supporters of the Tehreek-e-Tahafuz-e-Namoos-e-Risalat marched in the city demanding Islamabad cut diplomatic ties with Denmark and The Netherlands. “We put the government on one-month notice to expel these envoys and recall our ambassadors from the two countries, otherwise we will ask our followers to march on Islamabad,” movement leader Hanif Tayyab said. ap
