“Mr chief justice the mosques are not orphans… Mr chief minister the mosques are not orphans… if you have the courage then show it and try bulldozing the mosque,” Soomro said in a video that went viral on social media. He went on to say that till the day he was alive, he will never let “even a single brick of any mosque in Karachi be demolished”.

“We will stop you on the way [to the mosque]… if the mosques are demolished, your offices will also be demolished,” JUI-F leader warned. He also dared Commissioner Karachi to implement the apex court’s order to demolish illegal mosques.
