Christians and churches have condemned a Home Office decision to refuse Pakistani Christian clerics visas to visit their twin church in Scotland in December.

Wilson Chowdhry of BPCA said: ‘We are appalled that peaceful and legitimate Christian leaders are not being allowed into the country for a meeting with a well-established church, particularly when the Home Office recently let in two Pakistani Muslim clerics, Muhammad Naqib ur Rehman and his son Haseeb Ur Rehman, with a record of inciting hatred against Christians, for an extensive speaking tour of the nation and meetings with prominent individuals including the Archbishop of Canterbury.
