Author: News Desk

New Bishop of Lahore Rt. Rev. Nadeem Kamran along with other Bishops, Bishop Alexander John Malik and Bishop Irfan Jamil, have strongly condemned the despicable act of desecration of Holy Quran by a rightwing extremist in Sweden. He said that this abhorrent act has hurt the sentiments of 1.5 billion Muslims around the world, including in Pakistan. According to the Bishop, freedom of expression is one’s fundamental right but it should not be used to hurt the religious sentiments of anyone. He stressed that these kinds of heinous incidents create hatred which is against Christianity and all the religions. These must be curbed and a stern action must be taken against the perpetrators. The Bishop, sympathizing with the Muslim brethren of Pakistan and expressing solidarity with them said that he and the Christian community of Pakistan is against this cowardly act and vehemently condemn it.
