Punjab town tense after torn pages of Quran found, over 250 booked (on attempted murder charges)

A Punjab Assembly legislator’s property was damaged by a mob on Saturday morning in Ludhiana’s Malerkotla after a group, which wanted to complain about someone “tearing” the pages of the Quran, was allegedly turned away from meeting her.

Tension started at 10 pm Friday when pages of the Quran were found near Jarg Chowk in Malerkotla. Around 1 am, a group of people went to meet MLA Farzana Nissara Khatoon, who stays on Ludhiana-Malerkotla road, but were allegedly turned away.

According to area DSP Randhir Singh, the MLA’s security fired in self-defence against the 300-strong crowd that had assembled at the gates. The mob then started to attack the security and police personnel.

During the incident, several people managed to climb the wall of the compound and torch the security guards’ cabin. They damaged vehicles of the MLA and police and also smashed several tables and chairs. Police added that a private bus was torched by protesters.

The crowd dispersed after additional forces from Sangrur arrived at the scene. ADGP (Law and order) H S Dhillon visited the spot and said that a probe was on to arrest the culprits.

Over 250 persons have been booked on attempt to murder charges but no arrest has been made so far. Although the situation is under control, police said the city is still tense.

“We have lodged three FIRs,” Randhir Singh said. “One is regarding the alleged desecration of the Quran, the second is against those who attacked the police and the third is against those who damaged property. We have recovered CCTV footage to nab the accused.”

Meanwhile, the MLA said, “It is political mischief by rival parties and the police need to answer this query at the earliest.”

Her husband, former Punjab police DGP (Prisons) Izhar Alam, claimed, “The Congress is behind this. The police will investigate and get to the root of this.” “Two persons have been injured in the incident. However, we are yet to record their statements as they left the hospital before we arrived,” said Pritpal Singh Thind, SSP, Sangria.

“We do not believe that anyone was injured due to the firing,” said Alam. “It might have been from a country-made pistol by someone in the mob.” Six police personnel were also injured in the incident.

Soon after the “torn” pages were discovered, Ertiqual Hasan Kandhlavi, Mufti of Punjab, appealed to the protesters to call off their protests and allow the police to investigate the matter.

Sangrur MP Bhagwant Mann, in a separate statement, condemned the incident and demanded judicial inquiry through a sitting judge of the Punjab and Haryana high court.

If this is all it takes to rile up members of “the religion of peace,” let’s everyone shred a koran for Jesus today; get this party started so we can have a Star Trek kind of future (you know, muslim-free).

Round them all up and head ‘em out. Preferredly over the northern border where they will be treated kindly.

I wonder what would happen to me if I turned up at the governor’s house at 1 am to complain about torn up Bibles?

Islam is incompatible with a free society. If there are moderate Muslims they are heretics according to their guide for life, the Koran. This is why Islam must be banned in non-Muslim countries, mosques closed, Muslims deported, and then institute a “pet the pig” requirement to board a plane or enter a non-Muslim nation. Problem largely solved.

If they want to have their Shia/Sunni war, let them have it in their own dirt bag countries.

It used to be that you ripped up a phone book as a demonstration of strength. Maybe ripping a Quran in half should be the new way.

“Hmmm, what would happen if we airdropped torn pages?”

My exact thought. Could be a GREAT black-ops tactic against any Muslim regime we might happen to be at war with: ISIS comes to mind. Might promote an implosion with ISIS indiscriminately slaughtering one another and locals in their occupied territories.

Probably the best way to go about it would be to target one small, strategic area at a time, perhaps dropped from some kind of cruise-missile or drone flyover in a way that’s it not clear where all the torn up Korans came from.

Even better, also include handbills of some kind that make it look like one ISIS faction or the other, or some anti-ISIS faction or other is taking credit for it. And finally, do it kind of randomly, spaced out every month or so, in different areas far from one another.

Why risk our soldiers and our allies being killed or hurt when we can easily trick these insane savages into killing one another off for just a few pennies worth of printed paper and a bit of jet fuel.

I live about 15 miles from the “mosque” that this latest islamic murderer went to.
I pass it often.
I would bet my farm that if I were to go by there and throw torn pages of their koran out the window I would get charged with something more than littering.
So I guess hand signals will have to do.
