KARACHI: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Karachi on Friday held several protests demonstrations in different parts of the city against the United States' move to recognize Jerusalem as Israeli capital.
A large number of people from all walks of life participated in the demonstrations held in Karachi’s all districts. The central demonstration was held at Banaras Chowk.
The protesters were carrying placards and banners, chanting slogans against the US and Israel. Addressing the demonstration, JI Karachi chief Engr Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman rejected the decision and demanded of the Muslim armies across the world to get the decision withdrawn. He strictly criticized the US president Donald Trump for the highly controversial move.
He appealed the Ummah to come forward against the move with unity among their ranks. “It is not a diplomatic issue but a matter of our faith, belief and religion,” he said.
He also asked the global community as well as the people of the United States to play their due role and get the decision withdrawn. Terming Israel gangrene for the humanity, he asked the entire world to come forward against the decision.
He also warned to take out a ‘million march’ in Karachi and to besiege the US Consulate. JI Karachi deputy chief Ishaq Khan and other leaders also addressed the demonstration.
