ISLAMABAD, JUL 15: Pakistan has condemned the permission for public desecration of the Torah and Bible in Sweden. Offensive acts of religious hatred cannot be condoned in the guise of freedom of expression and opinion.
As a religion of peace, Islam calls for respect for all religions, sacred personalities and holy scriptures.
In line with this Islamic ethos, Pakistan has always stressed the need to advance mutual respect, harmony and peaceful coexistence among religions, faiths, and cultures.
We call on the international community to condemn, with one voice, all such abhorrent acts of religious hatred, which hurt the sentiments of its followers and constitute deliberate incitement.
