Earlier this week a Christian couple was attacked and thrown in the brick kiln on blasphemy accusation in Kot Radha Krishan. The police report confirmed that it was actually a personal dispute between the brick kiln owner and the Christian couple, he had given them 500,000 Rupees (3,935 Euros) to work at the kiln, they were unable to pay back the loan, hence he falsely accused the couple of burning the quran, settling his personal vendetta.
There have been protests across Pakistan, in Lahore and Islamabad Life For All Pakistan protested against the brutal attack" this is tragic, we are heading towards destruction, this insane behavior and intolerance will bear nothing else but destruction. It is time to act, giving mere compensations will not be enough, exemplary punishment is essential to ensure such barbaric incidents are not repeated in future. This has to stop, nothing will be left. We need to collectively stand against all kinds of injustice and intolerance.
