A Pakistani judge has issued an arrest warrant against a cleric at a radical mosque in Islamabad who refuses to condemn the Peshawar school massacre by the Taliban.

Imam Abdul Aziz has been accused of threatening activists outside the Mosque, reported BBC.

The cleric said that the charge against him was insignificant and that authorities should focus on arresting people accused of more serious crimes.

He also said that his case was extremely small and that even a sub inspector would grant him bail.

Earlier in the year, Aziz renamed the library of a school run by him in honour of al Qaeda's former chief, Osama Bin Laden.
