Pakistán condena a clérigo de partido prohibido a 35 años de cárcel por incitar a la violencia – Chicago Tribune

LAHORE, Pakistan (AP) — A Pakistani anti-terror procession has sentenced a leader of an illegal Islamist party to 35 years in prison for inciting violence, more than a year after the clergy publicly heard from the Supreme Court president’s lawyer, telling the court’s functionaries and defense attorney.

Zaheerul Hassan Shah, leader of the outlawed Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan, was arrested last year after posting a video on social media in which he offered 10 million rupees ($36,000) to the man who was then beheaded by then-president of the high court Qazi Faez Isa.

It has been criticized by radical religious groups for a year after conceding freedom of low alliance to a man from the minority Ahmadi community in a case of blasphemy.

Ahmad is a rama of Islam, but the Pakistani Parliament declared Ahmadis non-Muslims in 1974. Its homes and places of worship are frequently attacked by solar insurgents, which the insurgents consider here.

Defender Maqsood-ul-Haq’s lawyer and court officials said Shah had sentenced Moons for an anti-terrorism court in the eastern city of Lahore.

The sentence came less than two months after Pakistan’s government banned the TLP party from taking risks between its supporters and police during a pro-Gaza protest.

Since these meetings, the party leader, Saad Rizvi, has found himself in an open parade.

Police decided that Rizvi was in Pakistan-administered Kashmir during the unrest, which supposedly began in October after Rizvi led a march toward Islamabad from Lahore, the capital of Punjab province.
