Notably, not only the ecclesiastics from contrarily opposing sects along with their followers,

through legislation at an international level through the UN. The joint declaration of APC also
said that breaking of diplomatic, economic and cultural ties must come to pass and ought to
be with the countries that let such blasphemies occur.

a common line of action against the incidents of blasphemy.

Amid the APC's concluding session, Cherif and Said Kouachi have been titled Martyrdoms.
The two brothers gunned down the Hebdo cursers for the reason of the repeated and cyclical
blasphemous acts, that French publisher, Charlie Hebdo used to carry out repetitively since
2006. The two assassins, who eventually turned to be murdered by the French authorities
and police consequently, have been declared as Leading-role Heroes and Protagonist
Martyrdoms, by the all parties conference (APC), unanimously.
Ex-president and Pakistans former highest judiciary-official of Supreme Court (SC),
Justice(R) Muhammad Rafiq Tararr strappingly condemned blasphemous acts and declared
them grave violence by any means, at all vantages and from all perspectives, in a
pronounced way by citing Allama Iqbals standpoint in Ghazi Ilm-Din case, who murdered
Rajpal, a blasphemer, and consequently was sentenced for death by courts under the British
rule at that time.Maulana Sami-ul Haq said that the two brothers Cherif and Said Kouachi
embraced martyrdom to curb blasphemy. Prof. Mufti Munib, re-endorsed for what stated by
Sami-ul Haq and other scholars verdicts. Numerous others also cited famous philosopher
Allama Iqbals firm and staunch perspective-position on the subject.
Pakistani minorities leader J. Salik supported the cause and made high condemnations on
the blasphemous acts of Charlie Hebdo, and categorically cited for the sentiments of Vaticans
Pope Francis, concerning the sensitivity of the subject-matter. Though, the Vatican Popes
statement didnt justify the Hebdo murders, but nevertheless, quite noticeably and evidently, it
provided the baseline position and very clearly stated for what constitutes the conceivable
bottom-lines, concerning the subject under consideration.
Initially the in-absentia funeral services were solemnly paid in Peshawar, Istanbul, Kabul
Hyderabad Deccan, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia declaring Kouachi brothers martyrdoms. French
authorities forbade the family members to hold their funeral in Paris. However, the prevented
funeral began to be commenced at other parts of the world. Initiated by Allama Pir
Muhammad Chishti, the memorials to honor them have been performed in almost 12
countries, to date.
