Member of Hizb ut-Tahrir Osama Haneef abducted on his way to his office

Abduction of members of Hizb ut-Tahrir continues unabated, upon the instruction of the traitors within the current political and military leadership. These American agents, devoid of any self-respect and honor, must know that these arrests will neither deter Hizb from its struggle nor delay the establishment of the Khilafat. Whilst the whereabouts of the Deputy to the Spokesman of Hizb ut-Tahrir in Pakistan, Imran Yousufzai, and Hizb member, Hayan Khan, remain unknown, the secret agencies have abducted yet another member of Hizb ut-Tahrir, Osama Haneef, a graduate of NUST and a Telecom Engineer, whilst he was on his way to his office today, at nine am.

Persecution by government agencies unabated!

Member of Hizb ut-Tahrir Osama Haneef abducted on his way to his office

Abduction of members of Hizb ut-Tahrir continues unabated, upon the instruction of the traitors within the current political and military leadership. These American agents, devoid of any self-respect and honor, must know that these arrests will neither deter Hizb from its struggle nor delay the establishment of the Khilafat. Whilst the whereabouts of the Deputy to the Spokesman of Hizb ut-Tahrir in Pakistan, Imran Yousufzai, and Hizb member, Hayan Khan, remain unknown, the secret agencies have abducted yet another member of Hizb ut-Tahrir, Osama Haneef, a graduate of NUST and a Telecom Engineer, whilst he was on his way to his office today, at nine am.

This is the third abduction in Islamabad so far, this month. Moreover, Engineer Aftab, who was abducted in Multan, has finally been “recovered” from the secret agencies and put behind bars by the police. It is regrettable that the courts have handed him back to the brutal police for “physical remand”, instead of ordering his release. As for Osama, a young father of a baby girl, he has had an outstanding academic record and is an outstanding and respected individual. He was one of the best students in the nationally reputed National University of Sciences & Technology (NUST). The abduction of Osama has proved that the government agencies have absolutely no regard for the law of the country. Yet, when it comes to crushing Muslims they claim the “sanctity” of Kufr law and justify the burning of the chaste Muslim girls of Jama-e-Hafsa with white phosphorus.

Moreover, they present the argument that the students of Lal Masjid challenged the writ of the state, because they abducted corrupt people. We ask the government doesn’t its abduction of Hizb members by secret agencies not violate this writ? Will the transgressors of this “sacred writ” be punished in the same way as the girls of Jama-e-Hafsa? And the same false excuse is being used for the current military operations in Kurram and Mohmand Agencies of the Tribal region. Millions of people have become homeless and tanks and fighter planes are bombing the tribal people. This brutal act was not even committed byIndia in Kashmir, during their operations against the so-called terrorists. It has been established beyond doubt that these traitor and agent rulers are persecuting Hizb ut-Tahrir in order to pleaseAmerica. But the rulers must remember that every effort to stop the establishment of the Khilafat and the implementation of Islam is bound to fail. And whoever does this will be accounted in this world and the punishment of the Day of Judgment is far more severe than any in this world.
