Khyber Pakhtunkhwa [Pakistan], March 14 (ANI): The Jamiat Ulama-e-Islam (JUI) in a statement condemned the mosque blast that occurred earlier on Friday.
The party demanded government interference in bringing the law and order situation under control, especially in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan.
“JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman strongly condemns mosque blast in South Waziristan. The holy month of Ramadan and the sanctity of the mosque were violated. The explosion is regrettable and condemnable. The government and institutions need to take the nation into confidence regarding the law and order situation, especially in KP and Balochistan. Important issues like unrest in KP and Balochistan are ignored in both houses of parliament. May Allah grant Maulana Abdullah Nadeem and the other injured a speedy recovery,” the party said in a post on X.
