He said that Rehman was a proclaimed offender and wanted to Ghalib Market police in an encounter case. “They were inciting hate against members of other sects,” he said. “Hate material, including CDs, books and pamphlets were seized during the raid,” he said.

Tariq | 8 years ago | Reply This is the most un-journalistic news i have ever read. IF HT would have been doing what is mentioned in this news, government would have not arrested any of its members. BUT just because HT is against the STATUESQUE and want a radically ideological change, a complete paradigm shift from Secular Democracy and Capitalism to Islam, that's the only "Crime" they have been committing and will continue doing until and unless Islam as an ideology is established and implemented. Dare talk to us, as you cant stop our ideas from spreading and IF ideas could have stopped from spreading, Islam would have died in Makka!!!!
Saad | 8 years ago | Reply Hizb ut Tahrir is a political party, not a terrorist outfit. It calls for Khilafah in the Muslim World. The whole world knows this established fact. Even the masters of Pakistani regime in London and Washington.
