Eine ganze Stadt angezeigt

By Martin Riexinger · November 18, 2008

Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (gest. 1908), der Führer der Ahmadiyya Gemeinschaft hatte sich zum Propheten ausgerufen. Damit verstieß er nach gängiger islamischer Auffassung gegen die Lehre vom “Siegel des Prophetentums”. Seine Anhänger wurden deswegen 1974 in Pakistan zu Ungläubigen erklärt. Praktisch bedeutet dies, dass die Verwerndung islamischer Symbole strafrechtlich verfolgt wird. Dass die Ahmadis in ihrer Zentrale im pakistanischen Rabwah den 100. Jahrestag der Ernennung seines ersten Nachfolgers zum Kalifen feierten, zog folgende Konsequenz nach sich (Quelle):

The Police Station Chenab Nagar - a place also known as Rabwah - in district Jhang of the Punjab province, in a outlandish move, lodged a First Information Report (FIR) against thousands of members of Ahmadiyya community residing in the town under Section 285, 298C, and 337H2 of Pakistan Penal Code. The police booked the whole town on religious grounds.

The action has been taken to stop continuously mounting pressure of certain local and provincial Islamic clerics which police has termed a “reaction” of the Muslims on the 100-year celebrations of caliph-ship by the Ahmadiyya community, a religious school of thought declared a minority in Pakistan in September 1974.

Besonders verwerflich:

The FIR stated, “The community members were also seen in a joyous mode and wearing colourful caps and displaying badges with religious slogans.” Hence the FIR was lodged under PPC Section 285 (with up to six months imprisonment and Rs 3,000 fine); Section 298C (Anti-Ahmadiyya law with up to three years imprisonment and also liable to fine); and 337H2 (with up to three months imprisonment and fine).
