LAHORE: Hundreds of protestors gathered on the outskirts of Islamabad to oppose the recent
omission of the Prophet Mohammad’s reference being the last prophet in a constitution bill.
Public life has been largely disrupte
d as the gathering of almost 3,000 has camped on the edge of Islamabad. Situation is getting difficult for police as the protesters seek to enter the capital. However
, the entrance to capital has been blocked using shipping containers.
The rally was initiated by a few hundred members of a small radical party, Tehreek-i-Labaik Ya Rasool Allah, gathered earlier this week at the Faizabad interchange near Islamabad to protest against law minister.
However
, the Law Minister Zahid Hamid issued a formal apology for the
omission of the referenc
e, how Muhammad is the last prophet
and termed it as a clerical mistake that later got fixed.
