We’re constantly told in the West that Sharia pertains only to Muslims, and that laws attempting to restrict it are unnecessary, as it will never impinge upon the rights of non-Muslims in any case. Here is the reality.
“SHO suspended after assaulting Hindus for ‘violating’ Ramazan ordinance,” by Hafeez Tunio, Express Tribune, March 25, 2023 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
KARACHI: Station House Officer (SHO) Kabil Bhayo of the Khanpur police station was suspended after he tortured, harassed, manhandled and arrested Hindu shopkeepers for allegedly “violating the Ramzan Ordinance” by eating.
In a video that went viral on social media, the police officer was seen roaming the Ghotki district with a stick in his hands, using it to hit shoppers including Hindu men who were reportedly preparing biryani for delivery orders in the local market.
“I swear that I belong to the Hindu community, and he is taking away food. We do not run the dining service indoors during Ramzan,” a man who was arrested by the police said.
However, the SHO publicly forced the Hindu restaurant owner to take an oath on his sacred book. The police officer arrested more than one dozen people after physically assaulting them.
After the video went viral, the Sindh Human Rights Commission (SHRC) took notice and wrote to the deputy inspector general (DIG) Sukkur and senior superintendent of police (SSP) Ghotki to take action against the police officer….
SHRC Chairperson Iqbal Detho said asking the senior police officials to probe into the matter and take action against the SHO.
It is pertinent to note that the Ramazan Ordinance states that only people who are obligated to fast under the tenants [sic] of Islam are barred from eating, drinking and smoking in public places during fasting hours in the month of Ramazan.
