A prominent Pakistani cleric says Saudi Arabia is behind increasing terrorist attacks in the South Asian country.
Sayyed Shafaqat Hussein Shirazi, the deputy secretary general of Majlis Wahdat-e-Muslimeen, which is the largest Shia political organization in Pakistan, made the remarks during a interview with Press TV on Thursday.
“Not one day passes without a martyr falling in Karachi, in Peshawar, in all Pakistani cities. If we have thirty days in a month, we have more than 100 martyrs every month.

The cleric went on to say that some Pakistani officials have been practicing policies favored by Riyadh for their own personal gains.
