Violent Rally in Pakistan Leaves 4 Police, 2 Islamists Dead
Posted on 2021-10-28 07:20:03
Officials say violence at an anti-France Islamist rally in eastern Pakistan
has left at least four police officers and two demonstrators dead.

The government deployed paramilitary troops to restore order.

Thousands of supporters of a radical Islamist party rallied Wednesday on a
highway in the town of Sadhuke as they marched toward the capital Islamabad.

They demanded the expulsion of France's envoy to Pakistan over publication of
caricatures of Islam's Prophet Muhammad in France.

The violence erupted a day after the government of Prime Minister Imran Khan
said it would not accept the Islamists' demand to close the French Embassy
and expel the French envoy.
