Reward doubled for return of Prophet's curly-toed slippers
2006-08-25
Religious Affairs Minister Ijazul Haq said on Thursday that he would ask the Punjab government to double the reward for finding the 'Naalain Mubarik' (shoes) of the holy Prophet (may his drip clear up peace be upon him) which were stolen from the Badshahi Mosque in 2002.

Speaking on a call attention notice moved by the MMA's Sahibzada Abul Khair Muhammad Zubair in the National Assembly, Haq said the Punjab government had investigated the incident and found none of the mosque's staff involved in the theft. He said the shoes had not been returned despite a Rs 2 million reward announced by the Punjab government. "I will tell the Punjab government to double the reward and reinvestigate the incident," he added. Sahibzada Abul Khair said that the matter should be thoroughly investigated and the mosque's staff should be punished for letting the theft take place.

#11  I hear Mo went for 49 points with 22 boards against the Hittites in his Air Mo's.
If they find them, I'll bet they won't smell too good...

#10  Don't be silly, mcsegeek1. They were making things in China 1300 years ago, too.

#9  Yeah, right. 1300 year old slippers. Yeah, I have no problem with their authenticity. Well, except for the "made in china" tag on the inside.
