FAISALABAD/ LAHORE: Master Abdul Qudoos, a well known Ahmadi school teacher was allegedly tortured to death while in police custody in the Rabwah city of Punjab on Friday.
The Chenab Nagar Police has registered a case against two accused police officials.
Master Abdul Qudoos Ahmad, 43, was taken into custody by the police in the first week of February for questioning in the murder case of Muhammad Yousuf, a stamp-paper seller from Nusrat Abad.
He was allegedly tortured ruthlessly during the interrogation, causing severe internal injuries.
“When his body could not take further torture, his relatives were blackmailed and he was released. He was admitted to a local hospital where doctors tried to save his life, but Qudoos died due to several injuries and excessive loss of blood,” Abdul Qudoos’s brother-in-law Imtiaz Ahmed said.
SHO Khadim Hussain of the Chenab Nagar Police Station told The Express Tribune that on the complaint of Imtiaz Ahmad, a case had been registered against the two police sub inspectors, Sujhat Ali and Manazar Ali under sections 302, 148, 34 of the Pakistan Penal Code.
He, however, maintains that the accused was picked up on March 24 and was released two days later as the police was convinced of his innocence. Hussain says a fatal disease could be the possible cause of death.
Hussain said the dead body was sent for postmortem examination, adding that if the autopsy proved the cause of death to be torture, action against the accused will be taken accordingly.
The spokesperson of Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya Pakistan, Saleemud Din condemned the incident, terming it ‘callous and inhuman’.
“The way Master Abdul Qudoos was tortured and brutalised is the lowest form of humanity. Police should investigate the murder case and whoever is involved should be brought to justice. The police have no right to pick up any person and subject them to extra-judicial torture,” Din said.
Saleemud Din alleged that the real reason for the teacher’s arrest was to taint the reputation of the local Ahmadiyya administration of Rabwah. “Master Abdul Qudoos was the President of Jamaat-e-Ahmediyya’s local chapter and he was arrested to defame the administration.”
Saleemud Din demanded the constitution of a high-powered commission to investigate the case. He also urged the government, as well as human rights organisations to take notice of the incident.
“The culprits behind the murder should be brought to justice so people can have faith in the police department,” Din said.

why only ahmedi why??????
If an MQM person is killed the Leader and the followers say an MQM worker killed If a SHIA is killed the Leaders and the followers say a SHIA is killed If an PPP worker is killed the Leaders and the followers say a PPP worker killed If an ANP person is killed the Leaders and the followers say an ANP worker killed AND SO ON But None say a Pakistani was killed So What If Ahmadis say an Ahmadi has been tortured to death
Where is supreme court? They must look into this matter. Very sad news.
i would just like to say that " Allah Talla In logo se khud he pouchay ga.
85% people do not register their cases. 15% get their cases solved when they passed from this world. WHAT A POLICE AND JUSTICE. For Ahmadies God is their just. I have never ever seen such a brutal torture in my life, and done by POLICE. Yeah the great police of muslim country Pakistan, No! Islamic republic, Oh Yeah! having Atomb Bomb. God Bless our country and our religion Islam. I am feeling shame that what I had to say for my country. ;(
At the same time we know majority loves us. Some Pakistani Muslims are the only Muslims who are very proud of being Muslims killing non-Muslims, and feel too much proud when they kill any Ahmadi. These Muslims are called Taliban, Al-Qaeda, or any other worst for the whole world. These polices official were among them including those who wrote full of hate comments here above.
Now we are looking to the I.G. Police Panjab and Supreme Court of Pakistan whether they are among the worst or not. We are sure till yet not.
It happens to many groups today - tomorrow it can happen to anyone.
Read George Orwell's Animal Farm
I would just say, it is murder of whole mankind.
well one more death...........something never change so will pakistan until they r not able to eradicate in equality in the society.........Shame on us
Tomorrow it could be your father, brother or son. Wake up from your deep slumber and raise your voice against injustice towards any human being or community. He brought you into this world and for the greater good of others and only He has the right to send you back.
We Need Justice
We Need Justice...
Why when some even minor crime occurs media highlight that, supreme court take notice and politicians protest along with others but when an Ahmadi is "Murdered", the biggest crime, no one even give importance. Why this is happening? They are not honest to anyone, neither with our religion nor our country.
We are living in so called ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF PAKISTAN........:( Ahmadis have right to live..... in PAKISTAN
When this would happen with you,then all of you will realize....... If you face this religious hate at each breath of your life in this situation which is spreading every second against Ahmadie muslims!
@AnisAqeel: open your eyes sir.. they are mentioning ahmadis because no body have dare to kill you in such a way just like done by police. the reason behind that you are a not a ahmadi . lets feel the grief of ahmadis. do you have read the human rights report ever. if not.. then open it and than find how much torture faced by ahmadi community .
this is so sad.. but i am sure those person who have no heart in their body, they will opposed the soft corner for ahmadis. religious extremism has increased . no need to become sad. Allah have Supreme power lets see what happens next !!
Peace will not return to this land unless all the injustices are wiped out and each and every community is allowed to carry out its religious obligations...chief justice take soumoto action against the police...
I’d call it an “outrage”, but my repetitive use of this term has caused it to lose its worth. At some point, callously enough, one starts to view these unspeakable atrocities as natural deaths.
After people’s outrage state has started checking the patience of ahmadies.i humbly appeal to chief justice and human rights activists to take notice of this brutality.
Though this is the problem throughout Pakistan, especially with Punjab Police that extrajudicial killings are increasing in number day by day and strengthening the hands of criminals. It is noteworthy that the same Punjab police was disgraced during attack on Sri Lankan team and many other such occasions which shows that they are not professionals and are not honest to their jobs. It is a fact that culprists are getting space in such law enforcing agencies not only defaming Police but also defaming Pakistan. Higher authorities should take quick and stern action in this matter. And if found guilty, the responsibles of the murder of Master Abdul Qudoos should be dealt with an Iron hand
very sad incident. All ready Pakistan is towards decline, and these type of incidents will make it quick.
If anybody wants to see wolfs in the shape of humans. He/She can come to pakistan and easily ask for them from anbody. They will have been wearing black uniforn and we call them our police. This Department has made our country like an african jungle. So we used to call that we are ruled and directed by humans but actually its not true. Humans live here but are ruled and directed by wolfs.
Very shameful act by sarkari musalman...
In an era where freedom of religion and belief is accepted as a basic human right throughout the world, these acts of brutality against the minorities in Pakistan will not help improve our already tarnished image in the world. Hatred and persecution of any organisation or its members must be condemned by all those who believe in peace and tolerance. Such attacks serve only to destabilise society and to spread discord.
I call upon all the saner elements in the society to protest this brutual and insensitive killing of yet another Ahmedi.
Khoon shaheedan-e-Ummat ka aye kam nazar raegan kab gaya tha kay aab jaye ga
har shahadat teray dekhtay dekhtay phool Phal laye gi phool phal ajye gi
Very shameful act. Unfortunately,some of the unfair laws of government like that tauheen-e-rasalat act spread relegious extremism in Pakistani society.
It is such a sad , surprised and terrible incident of killing of a school teacher Abdul Qadus. I have heard that there was no legal justification by police for which they took him with them? And police kept him under arrest till 26 of March for no reason at all. And yet another incident tool place of beating someone brutally, in the name of inspection that he is no more with us now. Can someone speak why he was kept prison for more than a month and how our police can beat and torture someone , till they are no more in the position to speak? Why we see news and action only when a government official or elite class of group face such issues? Why NOT when it happens with an ahmadi? We’l kept on watching the show and waiting for the moment when the incident will happen with our beloved ones. I strongly condemn the incident and hoping for an action by law makers.
It is a unpalatable truth that there is no value no safety of Ahmdi muslim This event is very distress moment of our life...I extremely protest against this trouble & i call media & government to give protection of every single Ahmdi muslim & also provide justice about this recpectable teacher.
No doubts the actions of 72 sects are similar to jews when Jesus (PBUH) came.
alas...another innocent ahmadi got martyred? how many more will be brutally killed like this? inhumane... there will be no action taken by local authorities like always bt yes The highest authority, Allah, the most beneficient, ever merciful has stored something very special for this innocent man n people like him. In His supreme court, there is no injustice....
Such inhuman acts of brutality give testimony to the fact that Law of Jungle prevails and "Might is right". Khadim-e-aala Punjab, Mr Shehbaz Sharif is requested to take urgent notice and strict action against the culprits who are playing havoc with the lives of many while in his province.
End this cruality.
we feel shame to be a Pakistani but we feel proud to be an AHMADI
I am forced to say that Pakistan is state where no one is preserved where the law protectors are the terrorist, it is such a Horrible nation and worse example of human rights exploitation. I should say shame on whole nation, this is not the matter of one person, but the thing is police terrorism should be stopped, you can be the next, shame on us all, who claims to be Muslims but is the act of a Muslim????? there is a need to seriously think on it, before its tooo late.
why cant we all think for one second that he was a human being, a father, a husband , a brother why does our mind ring only one bell that he was an ahmadi and so he deserves what happened to him, we all know that Pakistani police is not a friend to any one and this can happen to any of us ahmadi or not ahmadi, this kind of act should be strongly condemned by all of us having a heart and a soul. please fr one second just think of those children who will never see their father again. please think
One must appreciate the courage taken up by "The Express Tribune" for raising the complete incident like no other.
This is what Islam teaches us, How to behave with innocent people. I know there is no rule of law. We are already very notorious for our ill doings so stop "religious prejudice"
@Amir: Amir, I am not agree with you. Why you say well done....... R u not a human, Every One in this world born as Human, Not as Ahmadi, Sunni, Shia etc, Then they got a faith as you have, When you were born your you don't have a religion but humanity. After your birth they gave you a faith by azan in your ears.
So Brother at any callous and inhuman action you must condemn it, As a human being. i Think you will understand and will support for humanity irrespective of religion , color language & cast creed, I can only pray for your better thought.
Thanks & Regards
justice is dream of fool in Pakistan at least for Ahmadies. @ALi T
I dont know about the other killing in the custody of police but I know this man was murdered only because he belongs to "Ahmadyaa community" police is being paid by our taxes and we dont allow police to humilate or murder the people like this. Will cheif Justice will take somote on this??????
This was an inhuman act by police. Chief Justice and other high officials including CM Punjab, IG Punjab police should take immediate action against Chanab Nagar Police for this brutal killing of an innocent person. Morality of Pujab police is a big question mark here. We don't have to go very far to see an insane policeman killing Governor Punjab Salman Taseer. A policeman sworn to protect him, end up killing him. If justice is not served now, anyone can be next victim of police brutality.
Islam = Peace
Since there is no peace in Pakistan -----> No Islam in Pakistan
people of Pakistan have been held hostage by some barberian calling themselves as MUSLIMS
This is also a case of "Murder in the name of God"
The only thing more inhumane and pathetic to persecuting a small minority is to deny the fact that they are even being persecuted. I do not know what is going to become of this country, With hatred, killings, sectarianism, police torture.... this is surely not the Pakistan Quaid once envisioned.
May Allah enable us all to see the real scenario. Sorry to say, we have become addicted to gosip aimlessly just for the sake of arguments regardless the importance of the issue. Society talks are never like college debates. Well there may be thousands or even more such problems but still we should try to react humanly. If anyone can,t do anything positive, he better go quite rather than reacting in a negative way.
Pakistan,it's a cursed nation.They are torturing Ahmadi's for a long long time. Allah will take it's revenge for torturing the innocent ahmadis. History will repeat itself, not in a usual manner. Allah will punish all those oppressor.
Sir we hope that u have take an action on this allegedly murder on behalf of police investigations. i wonder if this murder is because of Master Sb being an Ahmadi or another case of Generalized Police Brutality. Anyways one thing is for sure that our judicial system is biased for “Ahmadikillers” like these. Though this is the problem throughout Pakistan, especially with Punjab Police that extrajudicial killings are increasing in number day by day and strengthening the hands of criminals. It is noteworthy that the same Punjab police was disgraced during attack on Sri Lankan team and many other such occasions which shows that they are not professionals and are not honest to their jobs. It is a fact that culprists are getting space in such law enforcing agencies not only defaming Police but also defaming Pakistan. Higher authorities should take quick and stern action in this matter. And if found guilty, the responsibles of the murder of Master Abdul Qudoos should be dealt with an Iron hand.
it is understood the police intensionaly kill Qadoos becz he is ahmadi muslim
i am strongly condemned these kinds of police behavior like chanab nager school teacher case. police need to change your role in Pakistan.Otherwise officials change police structure.
This was an example of injustice done to Ahmadi Muslims.
It is shame on the community at large. It is an indication of the fact that the community we live in Pakistan where this unfortunate incident occurs are dead and have no human values. Ahamdis are becoming victim everyday in Pakistan and the public tend to be totally distanced from these inhuman incidences. How can such a community have right to live in this world. If we become insensitive to such barbarous acts which are becoming routines in Pakistan, we will one day see the whole community being perished.
For humanity sake, let us wake up and fight this menace before it eats us. Ahamdis are peaceful community and are slowly leaving this country which means we are someday left with garbage and this society will be full of burglars and callous people.
That is a brutal act from police without having any evidence, torturing an innocent man. ahhhh.. As human being we cannot expect this piece of action from human but still this was done by the so called symbols of justice; Police. Everybody should remember that there is ALLAH watching and who so ever do injustice or do such act of brutality, will be put to the bigger punishment by him. Never forget this. Justice will be done by HIM. This action disgraces every human being, we cannot expect to do this to our enemies even but still it was done. Full DISGRACE for POLICE. Proper action should be taken against those responsible behind this as Justice should prevail though I doubt in Pakistan. The So Called Symbol of Justice these days; Chief justice of Supreme Court; where is he on this matter. He never takes notice on this instead he is looking behind all the political symbols. These injustice will prevail if there is no justice mechanism. Please wake up. If they will not, ALLAH will. We should be afraid then if He has to intervene then it should be terrifying for all of us as when ALLAH intervenes then there is no way out for all of us.
I am shocked to hear this tragic incident of brutal killing of Mr. Abdul Qaddus, who only fault was that he belong to the ahamdiyya community, is there any law in Pakistan? this is a delima for the whole nation where the country can not give protection to its citizens whereas claiming that they are the sovereign country where every citizen has the right to live according to his own will, but how pathetic is this that a person who has done nothing was murdered after extreme torture, I felling such shame to be part of such nation who cant even protect the rights of its nation? where the heck is every body? why doesn't any body take any action against the alleged killers why??????? this needs to be seriously think over , why is every body silent??? after hearing all this, I am forced to say that what a nation will do where the law ment to protect but it is not infact it is killing people, I can only say shame on such nation and law makers.
very sad incident. All ready Pakistan is towards decline, and these type of incidents will make it quick.
Its v v sad incident. Government and NGOs should notice of it and responsible persons should punishment according to law. It happened many many times that innocent ahmadi people became victim of cruelty.
Just want to pay tribute to Express Tribune that atleast they had the courage to publish the whole story...
Its a shame that there are people who think that what happened was right. May Allah open ur eyes.
So so so sad. Just for a second leaving his believes aside, He was a human, a husband, a father of four, and most importantly a Teacher... This shows how do we respect the nation builders. Just read it with Waheeda Shah case. In that story too the victim is a teacher. But this one is crossing all the limits of brutality by the men in uniform. But the worst part of the story is that a teacher was Slapped!!! and there was a sou moto action by Honourable Chief Justice of Pakistan. Another Teacher is brutally killed and there is 'pin drop silence' in the Chambers of Justice... The difference between two teachers is... the later was AHMADI... Alas!!! For a country where an Idol worshipper can get Justice, but not an Ahmadi...
So the State-sponsored hate campaign take this new turn. State machinery has always been used in the most ugly manner, but this new dimension is a new chapter altogether. Had he been a non-Ahmadi would he be subject to such torture and keeping in mind the pressure of mullah on this society ... Well Done you black sheeps of this black society. Alas only if you could figure out what this is going to return for your coming generations...
Tomorrow it could be your father, brother or son. Wake up from your deep slumber and raise your voice against injustice towards any human being or community. He brought you into this world and for the greater good of others and only He has the right to send you back.
Sad news...y are we so inhuman??? killing ppl in pakistan is the easiest thing to do...i wonder why this police department even exists..
Peace will not return to this land unless all the injustices are wiped out and each and every community is allowed to carry out its religious obligations
'The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.'- Edmund Burke
Often and again, when I hear of these kind of incidents, I think, is the law of Pakistan this much weak. The police/ agencies can pick anyone and torture even kills. Humanity, where is humanity?, the media , that is considering itself a representative of people, does it see all this, what is its response. On the basis of religious or other differences, one can use police, etc. to give a lesson to other party. You raised a good voice, keep it up.
The sad incident which Mr.Abdul Qadoos of chanab nagar passed away in the result of police torture is condemned and it is demanded that immediate action should be take against all the responsible officials.
Details of brutalities are revealed in an official press release by Ahmadiyya community.
http://www.alislam.org/egazette/press-release/brutal-police-torture-leads-to-death-of-ahmadi-muslim-in-rabwah/
@Rashid: Then probably the whole of the Muslim community of our dear country are opportunists. They are defaming the country in the name of religion and no ordinary religion.....the final and the greatest version of all the messages sent by Allah. No one needs to do anything to defame Islam and Pakistan.... Alhamdulilah we, the Muslims of Pakistan are more than enough
Shame on this unhuman and bruthul killing by men in uniform. Once again the Punjab Government has failed to protect the Ahmadiyya community and this is another example of Daylight robbey in the form of persecution. I hope the culprits are punshied and justice served.
Khadim Aala Punjab and there team member do not provide protection of basic right minorities. Khadim sb says in every speech we protect of thier right but physical that no give basic human right.
I think we shouldn't mix it with the 'Ahmedi" thing. This is extreme case of injustice and commonly that is what police do with every poor fellow they arrest, the ones who do not have any political affiliation nor they have enough money to pay ransome to police.
@amir and the other comments that directly or indirectly condone or support murder or torture of any human being, I cannot convey my shock and disgust. Shameful.
This is barbaric and heinous crime. I think instead of SHO saying we await autopsy report to determine if it was a torture we will then proceed to file FIR on 2 sub-inspectors, rather the torture of people should not have taken at first place. Police uses torture so they do not have to work hard in collecting evidence. Rather it is easier to torture so the tortured party can accept to whatever police wants.
Secondly, Why Ahmadis are not given proper chance in Pakistan? Why are they constitutionally allowed to be victimized? Why the each subsequent government which includes (military and so called democratic governments) loves to partake in criminal activities?
Why the judiciary in this country only listens to stuff where they can score points to gain popularity and blackmail those on whom they feel are the weakest link?
Such is a sorry state of the people of Pakistan, the governments and intelligentsia.
no one else gets tortured by the police in such a barbaric manner.it is only Ahmadies. where else did you hear that the police laid some one down and pass a wooden roller over his body or hang some one upside down for long time, and without any reason .this torture had been taking place since 10 feb . I read someone over here saying"well done police"Allah na kare but this can happen to someone you love . you should be ashamed of your mind set and character .is this the Islam you are following .Holy Prophet (S.A.W) never taught such intollerence or hatred .and then you say that Ahmadies are kaffir. they are those following the true Islam. they are the one following the true teachings of Holy Prophet(S.A.W).where did you see tyres burnt or burnt cars or destruction of any kind. just today on your news channels they were showing your responce to a murder. pray and then think who is true and who is wrong.
Mr. Amir may Allah enable you to make difference between foe and friends.Ahamdis have given their lives for this country and will continue with this.Our Islam has taught us to respect humanity without any discrimination of faith and nation.
inalillah wa inaalhrajun .. love for all hatred for none
Thank you ET for highlighting the plight of minorities and the atrocities committed onto them. I did not come across this news in any other daily. Please gladly ignore the bias and one sidedness being implied onto your coverage via some comments here. They are probably the readers who are looking for wider coverage on President' visits, CJ's suo motos, PM's eligibility case and CM inaugurations. May his soul RIP.
@shahid: Well said! As Omer said, Pakistan is heading the same way as Somalia. There is no govt. or justice system to speak of, especially where Ahamdis are concerned.
And when Pakistan has people in it who think and talk like Amir, what hope is there for such a country?!
Why is officialdom in Pakistan persecuting Ahmadis when they do not respond in the same way? Has it ever occurred to the bloodthirsty public, which claims to be Muslim, as well as the so-called 'authorities', that Ahmadis never behave in a 'ghunda' manner? You will NEVER see an Ahmadi wielding sticks and stones like it's opponents, do.
That's very unobservant of the Pakistani society, isn't it?
@Yuri Kondratyuk: It makes me laugh when you indians say that? Recent events in indian Punjab passed your eyes and ears? Police with RSS has unleased the brutality against sikhs and it going full on Recently they killed Jaspal Singh.
another attempt of ET trying to stir up secretarian hatred. Well Done ET, You leave me no doubt that your all hands in to setup ahmadi vs muslim war.
Pakistan is full of hypocrits. They kill their own people. Ahmadiyyat is the only sect of islam that never kills, or fights back for revenge. The only sect that promotes peace. Any religion that promotes killing due to their religion is anything but islam. And pakistan is full of such hypocrits. They do the most unislamic deeds, yet call themselves muslims. HYPOCRITS.
Hang those police officers responsible for the torture death of this person,torture system has to stop,there are plenty of non voilent ways to interrogate,NYPD can teach them.
Everyone should go eat a hamburger at McDonalds. Then all problems would be solved. A good halal burger goes a long way.
Pakistan will never be a land of peace. It never will happen. People in Pakistan seem to have the intelligence of a rock.
Condemnable incident!!
Soon we will be one with Somalia!
where is our government? where are the political leaders? why dont they raise their voice at the brutality against ahmadis ? where is chief justice ? why does not he take suo moto about the persecution and brutality against ahmadis? Is the protection of rights of ahmadis is not his responsibility?
@Loneliberal PK: death of any Pakistani minority by any cause is quite natural in Pakistan
This is appalling! What a disgrace!
God's help is near when oppression,injustice,brutality prevail.It is Allah's will and act that such inhuman acts always draw Allah's displeasure.Now these people are asking for Allah's fury to be ignited.They should not forget the fate of Iblis, Pharaoh and Zia!
very sad news :(
I consider ahmadis as much muslim as i am. i am a sunni muslim. on your face wahabbis. go back to saudi.
This is not a case of killing ahmedi school teacher.These type of incidents are happening every day but media never mentioned sect of any victim.why point out here.its just to show ahmedi as innocent.stupied media
The form of islam practiced by saudi arabia is not relevant in pakistan.
Really sad. However it is pathetic to give it a religious color since a LOT of people are killed in police custody irrespective of their religion or sect.
@Optimist: "Why mention Ahmedi?" Read the Ahmadiyya spokesman's version of event also. Police diagnosed the 'Master' died because of disease and every sign in the news points to his 'Ahmadi disease' from what he was suffering.
@Amir. Supporting torture/death of an individual is wrong under any circumstance - supporting it because you don't like someones religion is inexcusable and another example of the xenophobic fever that is one of the prime reasons Pakistan has a terrible reputation.
I call upon mohajirs, shias and other minorities to come to the protection of our ahmedi brothers.
i wonder if this murder is because of Master Sb being an Ahmadi or another case of Generalized Police Brutality. Anyways one thing is for sure that our judicial system is biased for "Ahmadikillers" like these.
This site intentionally wants to portray the scene that certain people are being persecuted in Pakistan. It is on a propaganda mission. Yellow journalism at its climax in English press in Pakistan.
@Pakistan politics: DId you ever question this when you were filling your passport, or national id, or when you were giving the examination in school. Well if you did not question the authorities then that why have you written about ahmedis here and i will not sogn it, you have no right to say it here as well. Its a discrimination that when you are comitting a crime its nothing but a goverment process but when the crime is mentioned in the newspaper with the victims name it is a bad thing. So much hatred in Pakistan has destroyed the pillars on which Pakistan was standing on. Lets not make it worst and help the one who is killed instead of being the devil and talk bad about a community that is already persecuted in pakistan
"Ahmedi hype week" on ET again so soon? What's the matter, got tired of the Forced Conversions stories?
@optimist he was asked to support the police for defaming the ahmadiyya community and leadership as the people responsible for murder of certain person. It is rare, he gave his life for the patriotic cause for community cause. now why not mention the reason for death? @amir when you will have children and a wife and the same way you are taken to death through police torture. one should say well done police. its bigotry of our hypocratic society. and sorry to say this are a common example of insensitivity of the so called muslim society.
@Optimist:
Why mention Ahmedi? . Dozens of Muslims die at the hand of police brutality. They are only Pakistanis!
Why is this logic not applied to passport application form or when lawyers were passing resolutions to ban products manufactured by Ahmendi?
You object to sympathy directed at Ahmedi but used the word "Muslim" in your counter argument!
Though this is the problem throughout Pakistan, especially with Punjab Police that extrajudicial killings are increasing in number day by day and strengthening the hands of criminals. It is noteworthy that the same Punjab police was disgraced during attack on Sri Lankan team and many other such occasions which shows that they are not professionals and are not honest to their jobs. It is a fact that culprists are getting space in such law enforcing agencies not only defaming Police but also defaming Pakistan. Higher authorities should take quick and stern action in this matter. And if found guilty, the responsibles of the murder of Master Abdul Qudoos should be dealt with an Iron hand.
Someone wrote: "Well done police". If people who applaud such atrocities are living in Pakistan then only Allah can save this country.
Can the Khadim-e-Aala venture to stand with a member of minority by going to victim's home, condoling with his family and assuring for full cooperation.
Even for sake of camera!!!!
According to HRCP report of 2010, people belonging to the Ahmedi sect were the worst treated minority in Pakistan! Worse than your so-called "idol worshippers". A nation is judged not by the way it treats it best, but the way it treats its most down trodden.
@Optimist: Why mention Ahmedi?.Dozens of Muslims die at the hand of police brutality. They are only Pakistanis!
Being associated with a minority in Islamic Republic of Pakistan makes one far more vulnerable to persecution as everyone knows there will be no Long-march, wide-spread media reporting or even an open condemnation.
Yes we all are Pakistanis but we all are treated differently.
Continue, continue you shameless so called protectors of Islam in the world's most corrupt and non-Islamic country. You have been blinded and deafened to your finality. This is only one person of a minority that you have murdered, reflect on this and then see towards what tragedy you are leading your country to.
Another feather in the cap of Punjab Police. Awesome work Punjab Police.
After people's outrage state has started checking the patience of ahmadies.i humbly appeal to chief justice and human rights activists to take notice of this brutality.
We should be ashamed of ourselves!
As far as police brutality is considered, I think in most of south Asia they are same.
Kya Chief justice ko yaad ha suo motto bhi hota hay ya sirf personal agenda yaad rahta hay
Tales of discrimination and killing are sad enough; why do the stories from Pakistan often also include 'TORTURE' ? Where has this culture of 'torture' come from ? What makes it acceptable as a norm ?
Still Pakistan Khappe
@Amir: oh a reply from jungle .......
Granted that in present day Pakistan the treatment of minorities is an atrocity; still, mentioning Ahmadiyya faith in this particular story (both by the writer and by the spokesperson of Jamaat-e-Ahmadiyya Pakistan) is quite unnecessary and is actually a disservice to the Ahmadiyya community. In a society where the lawyers garland the killer of the Governor, the members of Ahmadiyya community are already up to their ears in trouble and I am sure they don't need any more of it . . . .
It was just an unfortunate person who "turned out" to be ahmadi
Someone at ET really loves to fan ethnic and religious hatred. Does ET mention other police victims as Sunnis. No? Then why mention Ahmedis.
@Pakistan politics: Has ET not covered any other stories of police brutality?
What's your required limit on the number of stories concerning Ahmadis? One per year? Two? None? How many are permissible?
@Amir: Don't worry we will say the same when you are treated the same way from the same Police! We will APPLAUSE as well:)
@optimist he was asked to support the police for defaming the ahmadiyya community and leadership as the people responsible for murder of certain personality. It is rare he gave his life for the patriotic cause for community cause. now why not mention the reason for death? @amir when you will have children and a wife and the same way you are taken to death through police torture. one should say well done police. its bigotry of our hypocratic society. and sorry to say you are a common example.
This "Drawing Room Torture" Knows no Religion, More Muslims has face this torture then Ahmedis or any other non muslim. Only opportunists will use religion to defame Pakistan.
@Optimist: ET mentioned Ahmadi because they are one of the vulnerable groups of Pakistan. We all know what is happening with Shia Muslims and other non-Muslim minorities in Pakistan.
@Optimist:
Do you ever hear comments of jubilation like below in case of other victims? There is obviously something not quiet the same.
@Pakistan politics:
Everyone else doesn’t get tortured by Ahmadis, its one sided in case of Ahmadis. That is why.
@Pakistan politics: R U even human. any person other than sunni, you don't have any heart. Shame on your barbaric thoughts. You always question E.T when ever they publish news of people who have different belief other than you. Pathetic
@Optimist:
no it is not so..
because they are tortured, killed for various reasons.....
but ahmadis are killed and tortured for the simple reason that they are ahmadis....
@Optimist: basicly you did not read the complete story ,acording the spokesperson “Master Abdul Qudoos was the President of Jamaat-e-Ahmediyya’s local chapter and he was arrested to defame the administration
Any Suo moto on this Killing ????????????? Sorry Khadim e Ala of poor Nation has gone to London for medical check up
An other stigma to worsening human rights situation in Pakistan. Since he belonged to Ahmadiyya Minority Community as such no one will be bothered. No Suo Motu by SCP or CJ. Nothing by any high up of Government. What a plight of minorities in this great Islamic Country!
Well done police
Why mention Ahmedi? . Dozens of Muslims die at the hand of police brutality. They are only Pakistanis!
Why highlighting "Ahmedi" ? ET in this society do only Ahmedis get tortured and become victim of police brutality??
Dream of Iqbal, Jinnah's cherished homeland for Muslims
Insanity prevails!
We talk about the religious fanatics involvement, how in the world do we expect them to be better when the system itself is so corrupted/brutal/inhuman/full of hatred!
But we shall continue praying for justice! it shall happen and it shall happen soon InshAllah!
I'd call it an "outrage", but my repetitive use of this term has caused it to lose its worth. At some point, callously enough, one starts to view these unspeakable atrocities as natural deaths.
