Pakistan People’s Party Lahore President Chaudhry Aslam Gill has called for a thorough investigation into the tragic events in Jaranwala. In a press conference on Friday, he demanded a high-level judicial commission or JIT to take action. Expressing remorse and seeking forgiveness from the Christian community, Gill emphasized that party leaders would visit prominent churches to express solidarity with Christians.
“Under the guidance of Chairman Bilawal Bhutto, PPP Lahore aims to address the incident responsibly,” he added. Condemning heinous acts, such as the desecration of the Holy Quran, Gill said the events were a conspiracy to tarnish Pakistans image on the international stage. He emphasized that resorting to violence was not acceptable and stressed that grievances should have been reported to the authorities rather than taking law into their own hands.
