Ban Fazlur Rehman's entry into UK: Ansar Burney

Burney alleges that the JUI-F leader spreads hatred against the West and has links with the Taliban.

Express November 23, 2010

Chairman Ansar Burney Trust International and former Federal Minister for human rights Ansar Burney has requested the British government to ban the entry of Jamiat Ulamae Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) leader Maulana Fazlur Rehman in the United Kingdom.

In a statement issued from London, Burney asked Britain's interior minister not to allow Fazlur Rehman into the UK, alleging that he spreads hatred against the West and has links with the Taliban.

Burney said he will move to the High Court if the JUI-F chief was allowed into the UK.

Fazlur Rehman is scheduled to reach London today.

Nazir Habib | 13 years ago | Reply Immediately question the British Government why did they allow this rabble rouser to enter the UK. The British Government is itself responsible for this mess in South Asia. The entire JUI F and Jamat e Islami should be declared terrorists and exiled from Pakistan. Yasir is right let Mowlana Fazlur Rahman go to the UK and then dont let him and his entourage come back. Cancel his citizenship outrightly. Salams and best wishes.

Yasser | 13 years ago | Reply Are Both of them Pakistanis First ?

Karim | 13 years ago | Reply As long as the primitive way of one man one vote remains, people like Fazalur Rehman would keep getting elected, as the number of 'jahils' far exceeds those who understand. While the former mentioned category are active in electioneering, the later are relaxing even on the election day in front of their TV screens or writing blogs for 'Express Tribune', only to lament the results of the elections later on.

kkj | 13 years ago | Reply Hey guys! one special group is saying " Well done Yasir". I wonder whether their Biasness make them speak like that or they really feel from their heart lols.

zahid chaudhry | 13 years ago | Reply @yasir - A great solution, we better add other lot too!

Habiba Younis | 13 years ago | Reply @Yasir, hahahahahahaha! well said!!!

Atiq ur Rehman | 13 years ago | Reply @ yasir u r right brother, every politician should allow to leave pak but not enter again into Islamabad .....!

Karim | 13 years ago | Reply Pitiful, Our religio-political leaders enjoy such poor esteem with the people. After reading these comments Moulana fazlur Rahman should drown in a handcup of diesel

akhtar | 13 years ago | Reply Y Burney poking nose in affairs of JUI chief and UK?

Mohammed Abbasi | 13 years ago | Reply I agree - here in the UK we at The Association of British Muslims have enough fitna producing extremist mullahs to deal with, rather than importing yet more from Pakistan - especially the Taliban Terrorist supporting JUI-F

Syed Nadir El-Edroos | 13 years ago | Reply @Malik Rana: What did Somalia ever do to deserve such treatment?

parvez | 13 years ago | Reply @Yasir is the only one whos thinking cap is screwed on right.

Malik Rana | 13 years ago | Reply Ban all Mullah's into entering UK & other Western Countries instead they should be sent on one way ticket to Somalia.

Hamza Baloch | 13 years ago | Reply "Shah G" on express tv always use to say "eik to humy khud ko mujrim sabit kerny ka bera shock hota hia". same done by ansar.

amjad qizalbash | 13 years ago | Reply i wish one could ban peddlers of hate in our own country too.these religous bigots spread misogyny,homophobia,bigotry & intolerance & only because they have a beard no one in pakistan has the courage to expose their hypocrisy & bigotry. why do we have closed off minds who accept things told in mosques & madrassas unquestioningly without thinking rationally & critically about what is being preached.

danish | 13 years ago | Reply Excellent idea Yasir. Well said!!

Syed Nadir El-Edroos | 13 years ago | Reply Hold on! Isnt this the same guy who claims that the only assets he owns is a Vespa or something like that? How does he afford his land cruisers, take his entourage around wherever he goes and make trips to the UK to begin with?

Natasha Suleman | 13 years ago | Reply Ridiculous. In that case ban the entire ruling elite including the army from entering UK. I would like Burney to speak up against drone attacks instead.

Uncle J | 13 years ago | Reply @Yasir: Hahahah! Whattay comment sir jee! :D

Babruk | 13 years ago | Reply probably we should send him to Mars. Earth should not be burdened with his healthy belly.

Pakistan One | 13 years ago | Reply @Yasir Well said

raheel | 13 years ago | Reply @yasir. i agree with ur opinion

Muhammed Hussain | 13 years ago | Reply And the British wonder why they are facing an extremist threat, why does the British government let in these anti western clerics who do nothing for the country and are only there for themselves. And why do all these so called religious leaders want to go to the west which they despise so much? all of them jump at a chance to go but tell everyone else what kafirs and corrupt people the west is full of, but are the first in line for a visa.

Javed Afridi | 13 years ago | Reply I fail to understand why is Ansar Burney so concerned about safety of the West, but would join hands with a traitor along with the same Mullah against his own motherland.

Rizwan T Khan | 13 years ago | Reply I hope you have evidences to back up your statements. You also got released an Indian spy from Pakistani jail saying he is an innocent man which he point blank admitted himself later on. That pretty much lost your credibility. I suggest, now think gazillion times before you even utter a word.

MAD | 13 years ago | Reply Really dont care too much about either of them.

A Suhail | 13 years ago | Reply How come this guy gets visa's to UK and ordinary Pakistani's are denied. I think this two face Mullah should be denied entry to EU and US for good.

Yasir | 13 years ago | Reply Or better yet, let him go to UK and then ban him from Pakistan.
