QUETTA: Despite the call to end all sit-in's by the Majlis Wahdat-ul-Muslimeen last night, the bereived families of the Hazara Town carnage have refused to bury their dead until their demands are accepted, Geo News reported Wednesday morning.
The Majlis Wahdat-ul-Muslimeen Tuesday night had announced ending the sit-in and that the funerals of the departed will take place Wednesday morning at 9.00 A.M. However the bereaved famlies rejecting the announcement refused to move the bodies until the army is called in the city for a targeted operation against the killers.
Hundreds of enraged women voicing ‘Lab Baik Ya Hussain’ marched towards Imambargah Musa Ibn-e-Jafar locked the gate and laid siege around the Imambargah so that the burial rituals could not be performed.
Quetta carnage victims’ successors reiterated that they would not end their protests and sit-ins until the deployment of the army in the city for a targeted operation against the terrorists.
