When are you going to charge the inciters of this insane treason, or are you all involved in this? Inciters are the so called molvis. These are the ones who do not believe in the laws of land, but only in their own interpretation of divine laws. Classic example is the PPP mandated and signed by Bilawal's grand father ZAB as the Blasphemy act. Develop/have laws on the books to charge these molvis for inciting violence and providing/misguiding folks with phony interpretation of Divine laws with treason.
