Press Release
Protest before the Pakistani Embassy Concluded Successfully, Alhamdulillah

Hizb ut Tahrir / Tunisia organized a protest on Monday, 17^th June 2013, in front of the Pakistan Embassy in Tunis to protest the ongoing abduction by the Pakistani intelligence of the spokesman of Hizb ut Tahrir in the Wilayah of Pakistan, Naveed Butt. Since 11^th May 2012 his whereabouts remain unknown.

A delegation of the party headed by Aburl Raouf al-Amiri, head of the Political Office and accompanied by Brother Arabi Carbaka, Chairman of the Central Contact Committee, and Brother Saleem Samida, member of The Central Contact Committee. They handed over to the Pakistani embassy in Tunis an Open Letter to General Kayani, from Hizb ut Tahrir / Wilayah Pakistan, entitled: "The year-long abduction of Naveed Butt will not delay or prevent your end at the hands of a Khaleefah Rashid."

It is stated in the letter:

"We address you, General Kayani, as the key agent of America in Pakistan, a guardian for the American Raj in Pakistan and this region...

We address you as we find you, a man who betrayed our people and our armed forces by establishing America's military presence on our doorstep, a man who is deepening his betrayal now, by establishing a permanent crusader presence, under the cover of a partial, limited withdrawal. A traitor who broke his oath to defend the country from its enemies, by establishing the enemies' intelligence, military and private military deep within the country, its length and its breadth. An oath-breaker who silences and confines to the dungeons any Muslim, officer or politician, that raises the word of truth against him, exposing his treachery before this noble Ummah, to secure her from harm.

Thus, we denounce your abduction of our noble brother, Naveed Butt, confining him to your dungeons for over a year, since 11 May 2012. Naveed Butt as the spokesman of Hizb ut Tahrir is a man renowned for speaking defiantly, fearing none but Allah (swt), exposing your American masters' plans. He exposed these plans when you were the right hand man of Musharraf.

We further warn you that this crime of yours, the abduction of Naveed, will be added to your other crimes, when you are seized soon, inshaaAllah, by a Khaleefah Rashid, ruling by Islam and unifying this noble Ummah against its enemies... Lest you underestimate the value of our warning, it is best for you that you consider your own precarious situation carefully... consider your messages that you send to Hizb ut Tahrir through your thugs and your spies, calling the Hizb to lighten its words against you, offering in return that you will lighten your oppression against the Hizb and even release Naveed! Did you consider how your repeated, emphatic messages only confirm your precarious situation? Your messages reveal that our words of truth have besieged you, for you are aware, as we are aware, that Islam's commands are heeded deeply and widely by the Muslim officers over whom the Americans installed you. Or do you not know how they speak of you and your masters, openly in the barracks and messes, as well as the high regard they have for Islam and its Khilafah "Caliphate"?

O tyrant of Pakistan, despite the evidences to the contrary, if you think you're immune to the winds of change, consider that your peers amongst the tyrants and Pharaohs thought of themselves as if they are immortals on the earth and gods other than Allah (swt). However, they were met by what Allah ordained for them. And from them is the one who is waiting now for his blackened misfortune, which he will see soon.

[إِنَّ اللَّهَ بَالِغُ أَمْرِهِ قَدْ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدْرًا]

"Verily, Allah will accomplish his purpose. Indeed Allah has set a measure for all things." [Surah al-Talaaq 65:3]

It is worth mentioning that this message has been sent through the Pakistani diplomatic missions all over the world, as well as the local channels.

It is also worthy of mentioning that this is the second protest that was organized by the Hizb in Tunis against this cowardly criminal act of the Pakistani regime who has not spared the Dawah carrier.

We in Hizb ut Tahrir emphasize that this protest will be followed by several protests until the release of the spokesman, and Kayani's regime and his thugs will not be able to silence the Dawah carrier.

[يريدون ليطفئوا نور الله بأفواههم والله متم نوره ولو كره الكافرون]

"They want to extinguish Allah's Light with their mouths, but Allah will not allow except that His Light should be perfected even though the disbelievers hate (it).)" [Surah At-Tawba 9:32]
