Lahore, Pakistan - Pakistan's fundamentalist party Jamaat-e-Islami has warned it will launch a fresh movement if Ahmedi sect does not accept its minority status and the government keeps silent about its so-called "blasphemous and unconstitutional activities".
Jamaat-e-Islami chief Munawwar Hasan said the recent terrorist attacks on Ahmedi mosques in Lahore were condemned by all sections of society.
Terrorists last month wearing suicide vests and armed with grenades and assault rifles stormed two packed mosques of the Ahmadi sect in this eastern Pakistani city, killing about 100 people, including a retired lieutenant general and a journalist, and injuring scores more.
These attacks, Hasan claimed, had been carried out not by Muslims but by enemies of Islam.
After these attacks, the Ahmedis projected themselves as an oppressed community and were not prepared to accept their minority status, Hasan contended.
