<p>The UK Government condemns all instances of hate and discrimination directed towards
minority religious communities, including Ahmadi Muslims. We continue to urge the
government of Pakistan to guarantee the rights of all people in Pakistan as laid down
in the Constitution of Pakistan and in accordance with international standards. Lord
(Tariq) Ahmad of Wimbledon, Minister for South Asia, raised the persecution of Ahmadi
Muslims with Pakistan's caretaker Foreign Minister Jalil Abbas Jilani on 13 September
and in a letter of 5 October. The UK government continues to fund projects with local
Pakistani organisations to empower minority religious communities and to tackle online
hate-speech.</p>
