The wife of Iqbal Ranhja, a resident of Faisalabad district, died yesterday.
When Ranhja and members of the Ahmadi community took the body for burial at the graveyard in Kathowali, a group of Muslims led by a local cleric intercepted them and asked them to bury the dead at some other place.
Before the two groups entered into a brawl, police reached there and persuaded the Ahmadis to bury their dead at some other place.
Earlier, a group of extremists had stopped an Ahmadi family from buring its two-year-old child in a local Muslim graveyard in Toba Tek Singh district near Faisalabad.

A decade later, they were barred from proselytising or identifying themselves as Muslims.
Some 1.5 million Ahmadis live across the country.
