LAHORE: The business community has strongly condemned the suicide blasts in two churches of Lahore which took 16 lives and injured scores of people.
Pakistan Industrial & Traders Associations Front (PIAF) Chairman Tahir Javed Malik and Progressive Group President Khalid Usman, in a joint statement, expressed deep sense of sorrow and grief over the loss of precious human lives in the incident.
The trader leaders also appreciated the police jawans who also embraced martyrdom or sustained injuries while performing their duties at these places to foil the suicide blast attempt. They sympathized with the victim families and prayed for them. They said that the terrorists striking at the churches are the same who have been attacking the mosques hence they should be ferreted out and punished with equal harshness.
