KARACHI, March 14: Speakers at a protest rally on Sunday demanded of the government to arrest the real culprits behind Quetta carnage and release religious leader Jan Ali Shah Kazmi.

The rally, organized by the Imamia Students Organization, started from Shah-i-Khorasan and terminated at the Karachi Press Club. ISO Karachi chief Mujahid Abbas, Naeem-ul-Hassan, Aftab Haider Jaffery and others addressed the rally.

The leaders warned that if their demands were not accepted immediately they would hold a long march from different parts of the country towards Quetta. Condemning the indifferent attitude of the government towards the Quetta massacre, they demanded the Balochistan chief minister and IG's removal.

They alleged that the government, to please its foreign bosses, was creating sectarian disharmony in Balochistan.
