KARACHI: An anti-terrorism court sentenced a man to life imprisonment for writing an allegedly blasphemous book about the Quran and the Islamic justice system, a lawyer said on Friday. Police arrested 40-year-old writer Younis Sheikh early this year in Karachi after he brought out the book called ‘Shaitan Maulvi’ (Satanic Cleric). “The court has sent him into jail for life as he described the four Imams as Jews in his book,” public prosecutor Naimat Ali Randhawa said after the court in Karachi sentenced the man on Thursday. The four Imams were the third generation interpreters of the religion after Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), and their views on law are widely respected by the world’s Muslims, he said. The writer also committed blasphemy by saying that stoning to death for adultery was “not mentioned in the Quran”, he added. afp The Religion of PeaceTM http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=story_13-8-2005_ pg1_7" title="http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=story_13-8-2005_ pg1_7" target="_blank"http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/... |
