Govt took action against TLP when they challenged state writ: PM Imran Khan
ISLAMABAD (92 News) – Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that their government only took action against the banned Tehreek-e-Labaik Pakistan (TLP) under the anti-terrorist law when they challenged the writ of the state, used street violence and attacked the public and law enforcers.
In a tweet on Saturday, he said: "No one can be above the law and the Constitution.
Let me make clear to people here & abroad: Our govt only took action against TLP under our anti-terrorist law when they challenged the writ of the state and used street violence & attacking the public & law enforcers. No one can be above the law and the Constitution.

"My message to extremists abroad who indulge in Islamophobia and racist slurs to hurt and cause pain to 1.3 billion Muslims across the globe: We Muslims have the greatest love and respect for our Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) who lives in our hearts. We cannot tolerate any such disrespect and abuse.
Those in the West, incl extreme right politicians, who deliberately indulge in such abuse & hate under guise of freedom of speech clearly lack moral sense & courage to apologise to the 1.3 bn Muslims for causing this hurt. We demand an apology from these extremists.

"I also call on Western governments who have outlawed any negative comment on the holocaust to use the same standards to penalise those deliberately spreading their message of hate against Muslims by abusing our Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH)."
