The Jamiat-ul-Ulema, an Islamic association in Mauritius protest against the spread of American film insulting to Islam. It hoped that the Prime Minister Navin Ramgoolam, orders that websites containing this video to be blocked in Mauritius.
At a press conference this Wednesday, Sept. 19 at the Century Club in Cité Martial, Plaine Verte, Maulana Jameel Chooramun, president of the Jamiat-ul-Ulema, railed against the spread of this controversial video.
"The film shows images of the Holy Prophet in 'any form and any circumstances." There is no picture of the Holy Prophet. When you see this clip on YouTube, it is distressing to see that the words of the video are not only blasphemous, but they contain serious accusations, "he said.
Maulana Chooramun announced that a letter of protest will be filed at the U.S. embassy in Mauritius this Friday, September 21 to 15 hours.
The film, which disparages the Prophet Muhammad offended millions of Muslims. Deemed hostile to Islam, video shocked Muslim world since the beginning of September. The release of the film led to the death of the U.S. Ambassador in Libya September 11 and triggered a wave of anti-American protests worldwide. Faced with this situation, Google has decided to block access to the video in Egypt, India, Indonesia, Libya and Malaysia.
