KARACHI, Pakistan—Dozens of Islamists in Pakistan have staged a protest over an anti-Quran film made by a Dutch lawmaker.
The film sets verses of the Muslim holy book against a background of violent images from terror attacks.
Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilder made the film and released it on the Internet late Thursday. Some Dutch TV channels aired excerpts.
Pakistan's largest Muslim party, Jamaat-e-Islami, organized Friday's protest outside a mosque in Karachi.
Some protesters demanded Pakistan cut diplomatic relations with the Netherlands over the film.
