The pro-Alqaeda group was formerly known as the Sipah-e-Sahaba (Soldiers of the Companions of the Prophet) who has been convicted of attacks on Pakistan’s minor communities, mainly the Shia Muslims. Pakistani officials allege that SSP has been behind several militant attacks on Pakistan, including the assassination of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. The group has recently renamed itself Ahle Sunnah Wal Jammat and trying to act like a mainstream political party.
The group has held rallies in major cities of Pakistan against the US and the West, calling on the government to cut off ties with them. The US summoned the Pakistan government to ban the group, after the group’s largest anti-US rally in Karachi.
The activists find the ban outrageous and see it as an orchestration of America and its supporters, enforcing their will on Pakistan.
