Fugitive Islamic preacher Zakir Naik arrived in Pakistan on Monday morning at the invitation of the Pakistani government, for his lecture series at Islamabad, Karachi and Lahore. His trip comes at the invitation of the Pakistani government, alarming activists and critics because he has been banned in several countries — including India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and the UK — because of his hard-line religious views.
