Ban undemocratic, unconstitutional; allegations are baseless: PFI

New Delhi, Feb 13: The Popular Front of India (PFI) has termed the ban imposed by on it by the Jharkhand state government asundemocratic and unconstitutional.

In a release issued here the PFI said: “From the news carried by a section of media, we came to know that as per a notice issued by the State Home Department on Tuesday, Jharkhand government has banned PFI in the State. We strongly condemn this undemocratic decision of the Jharkhand government, which has imposed the ban on PFI for the second time.”

It said that the allegations as quoted in the Home Department notice are baseless, completely unreliable and misleading. PFI will not be cowed down by such repressive measures and we will fight this injustice through legal and democratic means.

The High Court of Jharkhand on 27th August, 2018 had quashed the previous ban imposed on PFI by the same government on 21st February 2018. The court had made it clear that the State government has failed to prove the charges it made against PFI.

This ban should also be seen in the context of the legal victory achieved in the lynching cases supported by Popular Front in Jharkhand. It is evident that the real motive behind such vendetta against Popular Front is to stop the culture of legal defense and democratic struggle that has been advanced by PFI.

The release said that the PFI has utmost trust in the Judiciary of the country and we are convinced that once again we will be successful in defeating this ban through democratic and legal measures available in our democratic country.

Dubai, May 5: Saudi Arabian prosecutors have ordered the arrest of a Saudi citizen for insulting an Asian expatriate and abusing him for not embracing Islam.

A video went viral online showing the expat, apparently with little knowledge of the Arabic language, being insulated by an Arabic-speaking man who does not appear in the clip, for having not embraced Islam and for not fasting.

A monitoring centre affiliated with the public prosecution examined the video the content of which “shows the citizen’s use of abusive words against the Asian resident on the pretext of inviting him to Islam,” the prosecution source said.

“The public prosecution closely follows up whatever infringes rights of citizens and residents including harm to their dignity and legal rights regardless of pretexts of such infringement,” the source added.
