The statement of the Interior Minister on the unfortunate Gojra incident reflects the conspiracy hatched by foreign elements, to keep Pakistan involved in various disputes. By doing so, they want to spread anarchy and lawlessness in the country, which will ultimately invite foreign forces already watching the situation, to jump into our affairs at the appropriate time.
And carry out their nefarious designs. No Muslim will ever tolerate the desecration of Holy Quran and he will be prepared to go to extremes to protect its sanctity. The inquiry conducted by a commission headed by a Lahore High Court Judge, is a right step in the right direction.
He will surely determine the causes, which led to the mob frenzy and the burning of Christians. The question to be asked is who instigated the Christian community to desecrate the Holy Book, knowing fully well that its consequences would seriously harm relations between Muslims and Christians.
