Jan Mohammad Abbasi (Urdu: جان محمدعباسي) was the Vice President of Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan.[1][2]
Contribution
Abbasi had been the Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan's vice president for 27 years. He had earlier served the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal as its Sindh chief. He contested the 1977 elections against the founder of the Pakistan People's Party Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto from the Larkana constituency. Unfortunately, he was kidnapped, therefore Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto ultimately won the elections as there was no opposition.[1]
