Hyderabad: November 12, 2011. (PCP) Board members of the World Sindhi Institute in a joint statement strongly condemn the brutal murder of the three doctors and one other member of the Hindu community in Chak town of Shikarpur, Sindh, calling it a crime against the very fabric of the Sindhi Society which has been the symbol of religious tolerance in the entire sub-continent. The members showed their deep concern over the growing intolerance in Pakistan where both legal system and social environment are increasingly becoming hostile to minorities, leaving them helpless and vulnerable. Echoing the sentiments of civil society in Pakistan, the WSI demanded a speedy justice to the families of victims and appealed to both federal and provincial government to play their due role in furthering the cause of peace, religious tolerance, and Human Rights in Pakistan. They further demanded the complete abolition of Blasphemy-law, which has become a tool in the hands of those who want to radicalize the society and silence all voices of reason. WSI appeals to all political parties, representatives of civil society, legal community, networks of journalist, and enlighten individuals in Pakistan to join hands to defeat this fresh wave of violence against minorities and run a sustained campaign for the protection of human rights in Sindh and the rest of Pakistan.
