Once again, popular Pakistani actor and Pakistan Tehreek e Insaaf’s former official, Hamza Ali Abbasi has posted a status in support of Rohingya Muslims, living helpless in Burma. He prayed to God, “Ya Allah, please give our Govt and Armed forces the strength to do something for our Rohingya brothers and sisters.” The last statement of his Facebook status, which was in inverted commas, sparked a little controversy as he denied any genocide in Pakistan and called them “terror incidents by a few hell bound terrorist.”
Hamza was happy that Pakistani media has started talking about Rohingya Muslims. He also also mentioned that, “UN has proclaimed them as the most persecuted minority of the world who are denied the citizenship of their own country Burma.”
The controversial statement came at last, in close brackets, he wrote, “(To those who will now rant about shia, hazzara, ahmediya genocide and minority rights in Pakistan, please feel a little shame before comparing our tragic terror incidents by a few hell bound terrorists to a brutal mass state backed massacre going on in Burma)”
Earlier, Hamza posted that no massacre has happened in Pakistan. “Pakistan faces random terrorist incidents targeting minorities and ethnic groups, no massacres occur in Pakistan.” Asking his fan if they were interested to know what massacre was, he added that, “You want to know what a massacre is? Its the brutal murder of scores of Rohingya Muslims every day and its state sanctioned.”
On the night of Shab-e-Barat last week, he asked his fans to pray for our Government and Military. “On this Shab-e-Barat, let us all pray for our Muslim brothers and sisters in Burma. Let us also pray that Pakistani Govt and Military gather the courage to do something about it. Humanity at its worst in Burma.”
