UN Experts Urge Pakistan to End Persecution of Ahmadiyya Community Amid Rising HostilityPreviousNext

UN human rights experts have expressed grave concern over ongoing discrimination, violence, and legal restrictions targeting the Ahmadiyya community in Pakistan. They urged Pakistani authorities to break the pattern of impunity allowing attacks, harassment, and hate speech against Ahmadis, who are legally declared non-Muslims. The experts called for protection of the community's religious freedoms, accountability for perpetrators, and review of laws restricting minority rights. Recently, extremist banners with hostile messages against Ahmadis appeared outside a Punjab university, drawing condemnation and calls for legal action.
