Silence of religious parties

Letter January 05, 2011
The country’s religious parties have been, more or less, silent on the issue of condemning Salmaan Taseer’s murder.

ISLAMABAD: The country’s religious parties have been, more or less, silent on the issue of condemning Salmaan Taseer’s murder. Political or ideological differences apart, this was an act of terror and condemnation should have been unequivocal and from all quarters. It is quite horrific that either our difference of opinion or our fear has gotten the better of us.
