Azma slams death threats from abroad

LAHORE: Punjab Minister for Information and Culture Azma Bokhari has strongly condemned the death threats issued from abroad against the head of a Pakistani institution, along with the spread of hatred and organized anti-Pakistan propaganda.

She said issuing threats to kill the head of an institution by PTI elements is a blatant violation of international law and is absolutely intolerable.

Azma Bokhari stated that the incidents of May 9 and November 26 are a continuation of the same foreign-backed agenda, under which conspiracies were hatched to push Pakistan towards financial collapse. She expressed grave concern over British soil being repeatedly used for anti-Pakistan activities, saying that the United Kingdom enforces a zero-tolerance policy — the same standard must apply to hate campaigns targeting Pakistan.

According to the Minister Information, coordinated attempts are being made through social media platforms and overseas accounts to instigate unrest and violence within Pakistan.

She added that the Government of Pakistan has formally raised this matter with the British authorities.
