A top Iranian cleric called on the Islamabad government to reverse the policy of inaction on the frequent killings of Shiite Muslims in terrorist attacks in that country, Tasnim news agency reports.
Addressing worshippers in Tehran on Friday, Ayatollah Mohammad Emami Kashani harshly decried the loss of Shiite lives in Pakistan, saying a number of Pakistani Shiite clerics have staged sit-ins in reaction to the killings.
“The Pakistani Sunnis and even Christians support Shiites, but the Pakistani government has not shown any reaction,” Ayatollah Emami Kashani stated.
He then called on the Islamabad government to “review its policy” of muted response to the Shiite killings.
