Read here: Pakistan PM Imran Khan backs Tablighi Jamaat after Saudi ban
Saudi Arabia had banned the Tablighi Jamaat two weeks ago. It is a trans-national Sunni Islamic movement which Riyadh said posed a danger to society.
The Saudi regime had called Tablighi Jamaat a gate to terrorism while prohibiting all its activities on Saudi soil. However, Pakistan has passed a resolution supporting the Tablighi Jamaat in which what is believed to be a tit-for-tat move on Tuesday.
The Punjab assembly in Pakistan where PM Imran Khan’s party PTI is in majority unanimously adopted a resolution calling the Tablighi Jamaat a force for good and a non-political peaceful organisation.
The gesture of solidarity with the Tablighi Jamaat is being widely seen as a retaliatory move against Saudi Arabia.
The statement said: “Tablighi Jamaat is a global organisation. It has nothing to do with terrorism. History has shown that these people have never been involved in such activities. They are earning goodwill for Pakistan with the preaching of Islam all over the world.”
However, in January 2016 the Punjab assembly had banned Tablighi Jamaat from universities. It had also banned it from mosques surrounding all universities since lawmakers thought the Tablighi Jamaat was sympathetic towards terror outfits and would try to mislead young students
However, five years on, the Punjab assembly is praising the Tablighi Jamaat lauding it for bringing goodwill to Pakistan.
Pak PM Imran Khan has recently struck peace deals with almost every extremist outfit in Pakistan. PM Imran Khan recently struck a failed ceasefire agreement with the Tehreek-e-Taliban. The former Pakistan cricketer also bowed to the demands of the Tehreek-e-Labbaik.
Pakistan will be facing another election in 2023, therefore Imran Khan is looking is eyeing his vote bank.
In 2010 a massacre had unfolded at a mosque in Lahore in which 94 Ahmadiyya Muslims were killed after being taken hostage. The minister of law in the Punjab province went on record to state that the attack was facilitated by members of the Tablighi Jamaat.
Moreover, Pakistan’s own security analysts have written in detail about how former missionaries of Tablighi Jamaat have formed some of the most dreaded terror outfits like the Harkat-ul-Mujahideen.
Pakistan’s own investigators have said that the Harkat-ul-Mujahideen was formed by former members of the Tablighi Jamaat.

What monkey fled with a bag containing evidence in it: Read full story
The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.
In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).
The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.
The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.
Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.
In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.
The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
