In Pakistan, parliament has declared Ahmadis to be non-Muslims. In 1974, the government of Pakistan amended its constitution to define a Muslim "as a person who believes in the finality of the Prophet Muhammad". Ahmadis therefore have been the target of many attacks led by various religious groups resulting in sustained persecution and many, many deaths.
