Deobandi ringleader Mohammad Ahmed Ludhianvi, Aurangzeb Farooqui, Rab Nawaz Hanafi, Taj Hanafi, Muavia Azam, Ramzan Mengal lead the Lashkar-e-Jhangvi in their respective domains.

However, state institutions failed to take action against them. Instead, they turn a deaf ear to hatemongering provocative pro-terrorism narrative of these sectarian thugs.

Meanwhile, anti-terrorism court found Deobandi Lashkar-e-Jhangvi’s Mohammad Ishaq, alias Bobby guilty.

The court found him guilty for killing three people during an attack on a shrine.

The Deobandi takfiri LeJ terrorist Bobby murdered Zahir Hussain Shah; caretaker of the shrine of Nazar Ali Shah.
In that macabre case, he also killed Zahir’s friend Mohammad Younus and an employee of the shrine, Mohammad Nawaz, in Korangi on Aug 23, 2014.
