Qazi escapes injury as stage collapses
Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal acting president Qazi Hussain Ahmed escaped unhurt when the stage he was seated on at the Kashmir Integrity Conference (KIC) collapsed on Sunday, the organiser said. The incident spread panic at the conference, he said. Political and religious leaders of Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Northern Areas also fell but there were few minor injuries. Jamaat-e-Islami activists rushed towards Qazi Hussain and encircled him after the stage was collapsed. However, Islami Jamiat Talba Pakistan President Zubair Ahmed Gondal continued his speech without any pausing and succeeded in regaining the attention of the audience.
