FAISALABAD: Jamaat-i-Ahmadiya Pakistan (JAP) has criticised the police for removing gravestones from some graves of Ahmadis at Chak 96-GB, Jaranwala.
In a statement issued from Chenab Nagar (Rabwa) on Thursday, Saleemuddin, a JAP spokesperson, said a man submitted an application to the police for removal of the gravestones, claiming that the words written on these were hurting his religious feelings.
He said following the complaint, the JAP officials were summoned to police station and were pressurised for removal of the gravestones.
Upon their refusal, Saleemuddin alleged, the policemen themselves removed the gravestones of seven graves on March 9.
He said the police conduct was a sheer violation of human rights, alleging that instead of maintaining peace and treating people equally, the police were playing in the hands of anti-Ahmadi elements.
