Pakistan: Muslim cleric who led rioting mob also notorious for abduction and forced conversion of Hindu girls

Sep 21, 2019 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Imagine the international outcry if a Jewish, Christian, Hindu or Buddhist cleric were involved in riots against adherents of other religions, and the abduction and forced conversion of girls of other religions. But no one will take any particular notice of this.

“Pakistan’s Mian Mithoo: Muslim Cleric Behind Ghotki Riots Is Notorious For Abduction, Forced Conversion Of Hindu Girls,” Swarajya, September 19, 2019:

Notorious Islamic cleric Mian Mithoo of Pakistan’s Sindh was again in the news after a video of him went viral in the aftermath of the Ghotki riots. In the video, Mithoo is seen leading a rioting mob in Ghotki.

Mian Abdul Haq, commonly known as Mian Mithoo is the Pir of Dargah Bharchundi and an influential political and religious figure in Ghotki. Mithoo fought elections on the PPP ticket and has been a member of parliament from 2008-2013. He was later courted by the ruling party PTI as well, and is supposedly close with both the prime minister Imran Khan, as well as military chief Qamar Javed Bajwa.

Mithoo, whose name routinely comes up in the cases of abduction and forced conversion of underage Hindu girls, shot to limelight in 2012 when he abetted abduction of a teenage Rinkie Kumari, her conversion to Islam and marriage to an older Muslim male.

Rinkie’s father, a local school teacher Nand Lal fought all the way to the Supreme Court, but couldn’t rescue the minor. When the girl in the custody of Mithoo declared herself a Muslim in the court, in a show of power, Mithoo triumphantly led the new convert from the courthouse, parading her before thousands of cheering supporters.

On one hand, his daughter wasn’t rescued by the court, and on the other, Lal was forced to flee. “The father found refuge and welcome in Gurdwara in Lahore, in Punjab province, with the rest of his family,” it was reported.

Mithu’s armed guards had escorted his daughter to court appearances and news conferences, Nand Lal told New York Times, adding, “Mian Mitho is a terrorist and a thug. He takes the girls, and keeps them in his home for sexual purposes.”

This year, Mian Mithoo’s name again came up in several cases of abduction and forced conversion of Hindu girls….

A Pakistani human rights activist Kapil Dev took to Twitter to demand arrest of Mian Mithoo: “Ghotki incident has laid the foundation of migration of Hindus from northern Sindh to Karachi and India. Mian Mithoo has become a state within state in Ghotki. Despite all proofs, no action is being taken against him,” he tweeted.

    For those who’ve not followed, this year, India passed a law that gives non Muslims from Afghanistan, Pakistan and Bangladesh refugee status if they flee to India, as well as a pathway to citizenship over 11 years.

    Any Hindus, Sikhs, Christians and other non-Muslims living in these 3 countries should take full advantage of that and flee to India, and seek refuge there. Their daughters would be a lot safer, and not procreate future potential Jihadists. Let them all become 100% Muslim. In the meantime, India should do what it can to encourage Muslim girls to convert to any of its other religions when they marry, so that they don’t remain a long term demographic threat to India

      Let them all become 100% Muslim…

      By ‘them’, I meant Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh, not the non-Muslims fleeing them obviously. I should curb my use of pronouns

      Yes–these threatened Infidels should get to India if they can. Kudos to India for passing this humanitarian law.

    Mian Abdul Haq ‘Mithoo’ is a bigot of bigots. He is also vicious and merciless. How much pain and suffering has this supremacist hate-preacher caused to nice families?

    Mian Abdul Haq is another reminder (to those who want to learn something) that standard Islam teaches enslavement and forcible conversion.

    According to Shafi Sharia manual, “The Ordinances of the Quran”, Muhammad “defeated the people until they entered Islam by hook or by crook.”

      You are too respectful. He is a vermin and must be destroyed.

    Mian Abdul Haq ‘Mithoo’ leads an organization similar in methods to the KKK.

    No one could co-exist with Islam bacause follower of this death cult will kill every infidel or force them to convert. There’s no such a thing like “moderate Muslim”

    • mortimer says

      TUV, I disagree. There are ‘moderate’ Muslims who ‘moderately’ practice Islam, but there is no ‘moderate’ form of Islam, at least not in Islamic countries. Islamic practice in Muslim-majority countries is dominated by fanatics who dictate what everyone else must do. About 35% of Muslims do not practice Islam. They are so ‘moderate’ that they are Muslims-in-name-only. That’s more than one-third of Muslims who are not practicing their religion.

        May be you’re right, but then they should just stop being a muslim. I would rather die than following Muhammad’s footstep.

    ………………

    I guess this Muslim cleric doesn’t know that Islam is really a religion of peace…sarc/off

    • Infidel says

      Sep 22, 2019 at 12:37 pm

      And also, that according to the Qur’an, that ‘there is no compulsion in religion’

      • gravenimage says

        Sep 22, 2019 at 9:56 pm

        Right–Infidels can always accept being oppressed, threatened, or murdered if they don’t want to convert to Islam. Most Muslims don’t consider this coercion.

        • gravenimage says

          Sep 22, 2019 at 9:56 pm

          I meant, Most Muslims don’t consider this compulsion.
