[ALOCHONA] Sentencing of Abul ala Maududi, 1954

      Can someone find the Munir-Kayani Report from Pakistani archives and help distribute it as widely as possible?
      The curse of Moududi is the scourge on our land, on our faith and our lives. Please do all you can to battle against this curse and restore sanity and humanity to our people.

[Below is a note from a cyber-friend in an Indian forum where I had described the plight of Bangladesh in the hands of Jamaat. He echoes my sentiments]
 
============================================
 
It should be pointed out that Maududi's imprisonment and death sentence
was for his role in instigation sectarion riots in Pakistan.

The disturbances were of such magnitude that martial law had to be
imposed.

Maududi contributed greatly to rise of intolerance in Pakistan (and the
rest of the subcontinent as well).

The disturbanced were investigated by a panel of judges 'Punjab
Disturbances Court Of Inquiry', which after a detailed investigation
submitted a 384-page report in 1954. It is sometimes called the
Munir-Kayani report, after the two distinguished Justices who headed the
investigation. I will share some of the sections of the report. It is
a very important document for students of modern history, not just of
Pakistan but of the subcontinent as well.

Maududi cannot be considered to be a hero in a society that values
tolerance.

I cannot understand why the Bihar Anjuman, or any other Indian groups
would regard him as a hero.
