Deputy Commissioner of Haripur on Monday imposed a two-month ban on the entry of two Zakireen and firebrand speakers from Lahore, considering the potential threat to peace and security during Muharram ul Haram in the district. The Zakireen and speakers included in the order were Allama Jafar Jatoi and Hafiz Tasadduq Hussain.
This restriction has been imposed under Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC), and a formal notification has been issued. The order warns that if these mentioned Zakireen or other responsible individuals violate the ban, legal action will be taken against them under the provisions of PPC, Section 188.
In another notification issued by the district administration of Haripur, measures have been taken to ensure peaceful arrangements for Muharram ul Haram programs.
