ISLAMABAD: Reacting strongly to sacrilegious content over social media, Islamabad High Court (IHC) Justice Shaukat Aziz Siddiqui Tuesday declared blasphemers as terrorists. Justice Siddiqui could not control his emotions as his eyes welled up out of respect for the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) while he was dictating the ruling. Directing Federal Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan to appear before the court in his personal capacity tomorrow, Justice Siddiqui asserted the matter cannot be relegated to bureaucracy. “I submit and sacrifice myself and all that I have including my parents, my life and job to the person of Allah’s messenger (peace be upon him),” he said adding, “If the sacrilegious pages cannot be blocked, then, Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) should cease to exist.”
