Chief of Jamaat-e-Islami, Pakistan, Senator Sirajul Haq has said that the rulers promoting nudity and obscenity in the country, at the behest of the west, were responsible for the molestation and murder of minor girls like Zainab. Addressing the concluding session of the JI central Shoora at Mansoora, he said that the country was confronted with serious challenges on all sides but the rulers, instead of seeking pardon from Allah, were behaving as Pharaohs.
He said that the government was the root cause of all evils besides socio- economic problems such as poverty, illiteracy and unemployment.
Sirajul Haq said that there was a wide gap between the rulers and the ruled. The ruling elite considered themselves as of divine origin and the masses as insects. Had the rulers considered Zainab, Sharifan Bibi and Attya, as their own daughters, these poor girls would not have been molested.
