Airport chaos: Waiting for Qadri
13
Police fired tear gas at supporters of a Canada-based cleric at Islamabad airport on Monday as he returned to Pakistan to lead what he has called a “revolution” against the elected government. But Qadri's supporters, including a large number of women, managed to breach police cordons to arrive at Islamabad airport overnight, chanting “Long live Tahir-ul-Qadri” and “Revolution, revolution, Islamic revolution” even as Qadri's flight was diverted to Lahore instead of Islamabad where it had been scheduled to land in the morning. -Photos by Agencies

Madness. They aren't even bothering about the fact that he is not even a resident of the country which he is caring about so much.
Bizzare and artificial. Send him back to where he belongs too.

This is insane, I feel pity for these innocent people who has been misguided by one mad person. Even he does not understand , what country is going through, and he is trying to make his points. What a shame. madness and sadness.

@Sarah - Your Life must be lavish enough in Pakistan for you to be able to make such a comment against a man supported by the poor.

The govt. should cancel the citizenship of Mr. Qadri as he is not living in Pakistan, and no visa be issued to him and this will sove the problem nicely, otherwise this cleric will keep taking money and coming to Pakistan to create disturbances all the time.

He should be put behind bars for creating disturbance in the country, instigating people for riots and causing loss of life and property.
