Declared non-Muslims in Pakistan, the Ahmadis face social and legal discrimination with growing incidents of attacks on their worship places, as well as desecration of their graves reported this year.
Last month, the graves of Ahmadi community members were also desecrated in Faisalabad.
Since the start of this year, as many as five worship places of the persecuted religious community have come under attack.
Earlier, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) found that civil administrations in Gujranwala and Wazirabad were directly involved in the recent attacks targeting the Ahmadi community’s worship places in these cities.
An HRCP-led fact-finding mission pointed out that there is evidence suggesting the civil administration in Gujranwala and Wazirabad were directly involved in destroying the minarets of Ahmadi worship places in December 2022 and January 2023.
