The Khawarij have a long history of violence, propaganda, bloodshed, and anarchy, and of supporting individuals and groups that work against Pakistan. By distorting facts, twisting events, and falsely blaming Pakistan, they seek relevance and attempt to justify their externally sponsored campaign of terrorism. From Gaza to the case of Dr. Mahrang Baloch, they exploit every issue without regard for the facts to malign Pakistan’s image and advance anti-state propaganda.

They falsely accuse Pakistan even on Gaza despite its longstanding and principled support for the Palestinian cause, while misrepresenting the Mahrang Baloch case despite it having proceeded through Pakistan’s legal process to promote a misleading human rights narrative aimed at undermining the state’s credibility and creating internal instability. These repeated attempts expose the Khawarij’s propaganda tactics, while Pakistan continues to stand firm in defending its sovereignty, upholding the rule of law, and combating terrorism.

Pakistan is a responsible Islamic republic with a democratic system, governed by its Constitution, the rule of law, and an unwavering commitment to safeguarding the rights and welfare of its citizens.

The Pakistani state remains committed to addressing the grievances of all citizens through constitutional, legal, and democratic mechanisms while continuously working to improve their standard of living and quality of life.

Certain anti-state elements exploit Pakistan’s democratic environment and patience that serve hostile external interests and undermine national stability.

Dr. Mahrang Baloch was sentenced to life imprisonment following due legal process under Pakistan’s judicial system for offences related to terrorism and incitement of violence.

Dr. Mahrang Baloch encouraged terrorist elements and incited violent unrest in Gwadar that resulted in the martyrdom of a Pakistani soldier.

The Khawarij are responsible for the killing of more than 94,000 innocent Pakistanis, including civilians and security forces, making them one of the gravest threats to Pakistan’s peace and security.

The Khawarij routinely distort facts, exploit sensitive issues for propaganda, and support individuals or groups whose actions promote anarchy and weaken the Pakistani state.

The Khawarij’s public sympathy for Dr. Mahrang Baloch reinforces concerns about their alignment with elements that seek to destabilize Pakistan and undermine its sovereignty.

The Khawarij are designated terrorist actors responsible for mass killings and violence. Given their long history of targeting innocent civilians, security personnel, and societal destruction, they lack any moral or ethical authority to lecture the Pakistani state on human rights or the rule of law.
