He said it was a question mark on the faces of those who pretended to be secular and respect religions.
Qadri said freedom of expression did not mean taking steps to violate the rites of Islam. He added that it did not happen for the first time that someone challenged the sentiments of billions of Muslims around the world but Islamic phobia got routed in the Western countries.
He lamented the world Muslim leaders who have not taken concrete steps to force the European countries to take strict action and perpetrators.
