Unknown men attack Junaid Jamshed at Islamabad airport,
Junaid Jamshed assaulted at Islamabad airport for alleged blasphemy,
Singer-turned-evangelist Junaid Jamshed was assaulted by a group of men at Islamabad airport late Saturday night.
A video that has gone viral on social media, shows a charged crowd taking blows at the singer-turned-evangelist at the Benazir Bhutto International Airport. The men can be heard chanting slogans against the preacher, claiming he has committed blasphemy.
Controversial remarks: ST wants Junaid Jamshed booked
The footage shows the group of men beat up Jamshed repeatedly only to pause for a moment and then lunge at him again.
In December 2014, Jamshed was booked for alleged blasphemy over one of his televised sermons that was thought to contain blasphemous remarks about a wife of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The preacher later publicly apologised and asked for forgiveness.
I stand with Junaid Jamshed
Mubin Qadri, a member of Sunni Tehreek’s Rabita committee, filed an application under Section 22-A of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) to a South court, seeking action against Jamshed for what he called blasphemous remarks in a video clip. District and Sessions Judge Ahmed Saba ordered SHO Risala police station to record statement of the complainant under Section 154 of the CrPC and book Jamshed if the case falls under criminal procedure. Junaid Jamshed has already apologised for the remarks in a subsequent video clip.
