Karachi (HRNW)— Central leaders of Pakistan Sunni Tehreek strongly condemned the police raid on the residence of party Chairman Sarwat Ejaz Qadri, known as Qadri House, during an important press conference.
The leaders stated that during the raid, the sanctity of privacy, including the principles of “chadar and chardiwari”, was violated, calling the action unconstitutional and unacceptable.
They demanded that the systematic marginalization of the Ahl-e-Sunnat community be stopped, and alleged that their party is being deliberately targeted.
Strong condemnation was also expressed over what they described as a baseless raid conducted without the presence of female police officers, during which women present in the house were allegedly subjected to violence and mistreatment.
The party leadership demanded the immediate release of all office-bearers and workers arrested during the raid.
They further stated that extortion-related allegations against Pakistan Sunni Tehreek have been repeatedly made for the past 15 years, which they described as politically motivated and fabricated cases aimed at defaming the party.
At the conclusion of the press conference, the leaders urged the Chief Minister of Sindh and the Provincial Interior Minister to take immediate notice of the incident and ensure accountability.
