Hawzah News Agency (Islamabad - Pakistan) - Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi has supported Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif’s condemnation of organized violence against Muslims in India.

In a Twitter message on Tuesday, Qureshi said he “fully share[d]” the concerns expressed by “my brother” Zarif.

“Fully share the concerns expressed by my brother JZarif on safety and well-being of Indian Muslims facing naked violence from RSS mobs. India is in throes of grave communal violence. Their sinister & systematic killing of Muslims is inhuman & dangerous for whole region,” Qureshi wrote, referring to an Indian right-wing paramilitary organization.

Foreign Minister Zarif had posted a tweet of his own a day earlier condemning the recent deadly atrocities against Indian Muslims by pro-government Hindu mobs.

Zarif’s statement was made in reaction to the brutal killing of dozens and wounding of hundreds of Indian Muslims by Hindu mobs in India in the recent weeks.

Indian authorities later on Tuesday summoned Iran’s Ambassador to India Ali Chegeni to file “strong protest” over Zarif’s tweet.
