CAP Liberté de Conscience and the International Human Rights Committee (IHRC) are ringing the alarm bells over the continuing erosion of religious freedom in Pakistan. In a recent joint report submitted to the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Religion or Belief, these organizations continued to highlight the systematic and widespread violations of the rights of religious minorities with a focus on the Ahmadiyya Muslim community. The report shows that international intervention is desperately required to prevent the further persecution of Ahmadis in Pakistan, a community that has been persecuted for its beliefs for years.

“Persecution against Ahmadis has ramped up as of late, as the IHRC has reported almost daily incidents against the minority group. Graveyards vandalism and Mosque Minarets’ demolition has been a favored tactic of the Anti-Ahmadiyya element in Pakistan for years. This shameful tactic means Ahmadis are not free from persecution even after their death.”
