He had further tweeted, “Rape, Sexual activities in House of Allah are not blasphemy? Why no punishment, While kill non-Muslims on small things? Is this ok to do this in presence of Quran & Allah? What about Islamic Prayer NAMAZ on such place? Is this ok to perform Namaz where a MOLVI sprayed his semen?”
