Sunni Muslims always claim that Ahmadis are not persecuted in Pakistan. Here is an example of their bullying and abuse of the Ahmadi Muslims in the UK. On two programmes aired by Takbeer TV our members were subjected to insults and bullying in violation of broadcasting rules as given in this news item.

UK broadcaster Takbeer TV has been fined £25,000 for airing material that subjected members of the Ahmadi community and their beliefs to abusive treatment in June/July last year.
The channel, which targets the Sunni Muslim community in the UK and internationally, was found in breach of Rules 4.1 and 4.2 in the Ofcom Broadcasting Code.

As quoted from the Media247.co.uk website the breach by Takbeer was proved and it was fined £25,000. Takbeer TV believes that their views reflect Islamic teaching and that it is every Muslims duty to conduct a jihad against suppression of Islamic teaching. We hope that Takbeer TV will now conduct a jihad against Ofcom’s ruling and as a first step we invite them to repeat the shows in full.
