Ravish-ji there is something that doesnt gel in your argument. You have one case where the sensibilities of aam-abduls are being immediately considered by elite-types but the sensibilities of aam-aadmi like me dont matter since i didnt slap a case against MF. I cannot help but link the propensity of aam-abduls to go on rampage after the friday namaaz with the immediate consideration of the 'sensibilitities' of the fatwa-happy abduls.. Besides FWIW the Indian state is HUUGE and doesnt miss a chance to appease the aam-abduls then why cant it do something about this MF ? Perhaps it is waiting for aam-aadmi to go on rampage too so they can happily proclaim -> see this fascist hindutvavadi going on rampage, they are like this onlee..
Cartoons: UP Shariat court too orders death
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--> LUCKNOW, FEBRUARY 20: Close on the heels of an UP minister announcing a cash reward of Rs 51 crore to anyone that beheaded the Danish cartoonist who caricatured the Prophet, a shariat court has issued a fatwa sentencing the cartoonist to death.
The decree was issued on behalf of the Idar-e-Sharia Darul Kaza and the Ifta Firangimahal Taksal by their qazi yesterday. The qazi said it had been clearly stated in the Quran that whosoever hurt the Prophet deserved to be sternly punished. Asked whether the fatwa had any significance in India, where Islamic laws do not apply, he said, ââIt is applicable wherever Muslims live.ââ <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
