People largely attended the funeral prayers, procession and burial rituals in Kahyal graveyard near his house.

Since he died of Coronavirus, experts alert that the participants of the funeral rituals might also have suffered from the pandemic.

The attendees reportedly had not observed precautionary measures there.

Tableeghi Jamaat member stabbed SHO

Earlier, Deobandi Tableeghi Jamaat member stabbed SHO in bid to flee quarantine centre.

The station house officer (SHO) sustained injuries in Layyah when the Tableeghi Jamaat member Abdul Rehman attacked him with a knife.

Deobandi preaching party member attempted to escape because police sought to quarantine them due to positive tests for Coronavirus.

SHO Ashraf shifted to hospital for treatment.

Later, the police and district administration approached the organisers and with their ‘permission’ cordoned off the Markaz.

It remains amazing that the state officials get permission from Deobandi Tableeghi Jamaat despite stabbing of SHO and despite presence of Coronavirus patients.

Double standard

Karachi’s Nazimabad police registered an FIR against Allama Mirza Yousuf Hussain, his son and others.

Biased police falsely accused them of violating section 144 although they had not violated the law.
