The anti-Charlie Hebdo events in Pakistan were interspersed with serious violence on Friday. A photographer of AFP was wounded by bullets. Hit in the lung, and then rushed to the hospital, he was seriously injured but his days are not in danger.
The rally took place where the clashes took place this morning in front of the Consulate of France in Karachi, the economic capital of Pakistan.
These are the major Islamist parties in the country who had called in the major cities in demonstrations against the cover of Charlie Hebdo on Wednesday.
Pakistani officials, including Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif condemned the cartoons, judging the "blasphemous". The Taliban in the country for their part called for reprisals against "enemies of Islam".
