Speakers at a seminar in support of the pro- Pakistan leaders facing executions in Bangladesh have called upon Government of Pakistan to move to International Court of Justice (ICJ) on violation of the between Pakistan, India and Bangladesh assuring that there won't be war crime trials.
Jamaat-e-Islami chief Senator Sirajul Haq in his address said that if Islamabad took issue to ICJ, the Muslim world would support it. He said the rulers in Islamabad had failed to stop the executions of Pakistan's loyalists so far. However, he said, if the government raised the issue at this stage, many other leaders who had been handed down death sentences, could be saved. He said that death sentence had been announced against 25 people while more than 25000 others were behind the bars. They also included thousands of youth who were not born in 1971, he added.
Those who addressed the seminar held at the Lahore Press Club, included senior journalists Ataur Rahman, Sajjad Mir, Akram Chaudhry, JI Foreign Affairs Wing chief Abdul Ghaffar Aziz and JI Information Secretary Ameer-ul-Azeem.
Haq said that if the rulers had any sense of national honour and self respect, they would have aroused the world conscience at the very first execution in Dhaka. However, he said that Islamabad's conscience was dead. "Islamabad is just a graveyard and my voice has died down in this graveyard. The Lion has proved to be of a zoo," he added.
He pointed out that Indian Premier Modi had during his visit to Dhaka early this year publicly confessed India's role in the break-up of Pakistan. He said that Modi's statement could have been made the basis for raising this issue.
He said that Hasina Wajid was sending those people to gallows who did not want Bangladesh to become India's colony.
Sirajul Haq said besides more than 200 million Indian Muslims, the Muslims in Nepal, Bhutan and Sri n Lanka wanted sovereignty and liberation from India's supremacy. However, he said that Pakistan was bowing before Modi and her rulers had mentally accepted India's supremacy.
The JI chief also deplored that the Pakistani media was not giving due importance to the people who sacrificed their lives in Dhaka for Pakistan.
Addressing the seminar, Sajjad Mir said that eminent Indian intellectuals had turned their awards in protest against Modi's extremism. However, he said that some people in this country were still trying to shake the ideological foundations of this country. He said that had Waris Mir been alive today, he would have felt an insult in receiving award from Hasina Wajid, a puppet at India's hands. He urged TV anchor person and journalist Hamid Mir to return the award he had received from Hasina Wajid.
Senior journalist Ataur Rahman said that those going to the gallows in Bangladesh had expiated the sins of the nation as a whole. He said that the elderly leaders of the Jamaat-e-Islami in Bangladesh were being punished for the sins of the rulers.
