| Leaflets calling for death of Ahmadis found in London mosque |
| 2016-04-12 |
| [DAWN] Piles of leaflets calling for the death of Ahmadis have been found at a south London mosque, according to a BBC report. "They're like, infidels, y'know?" The leaflets, written in English by a former leader of the Khatme Nabuwwat, call for ’capital punishment’ of Ahmadis unless they renounce their faith and convert to mainstream Islam within three days. "Dat's right! Gonna chop their pointy little heads off!" According to the International Business Times, the same pamphlets have been distributed at various events and locations in London over the past few years. Wherever the Devout gather, in fact. According to the BBC, the Khatme Nabuwwat lists the Stockwell Green mosque as its office in Charity Commission documents and has also listed it as an ’overseas office’ on its website. When contacted by the BBC, Toaha Qureshi, a mosque trustee said, "We have not published any pamphlet of that kind. "No, no! Certainly not!" This is nothing to do with our mosque. "Tut tut, my good man!" Someone might have put it there and taken from there with malicious intentions." "Yeah. Dat's right! Somebody left it here!" The same mosque has been previously accused of promoting acts of terror in Pakistain in 2011, when similar pamphlets were distributed in Pakistain directing readers to the Stockwell Green mosque's website. "Well, it says it's ours and it gives our address and phone number and email, but really it's not ours. It's somebody else's!" Qureshi had denied association with the organization at the time, saying the mosque is an independent organization and its name had been misused. The incident comes less than a month after an Ahmadi shopkeeper in Glasgow was killed in what police termed a "religiously prejudiced" murder. |
