In Lahore, 17-year-old Christian boy #PatrasMasih is accused of #blasphemy on social media by a local cleric. An angry mob led by Tehreek-e-Labaiak gathered outside Masih's house in Shahdara. Police lodged FIR under 295-C and the boy's father Indreas was arrested yesterday.
Later, teenager accused of blasphemy #PatrasMasih handed himself to the police. Situation in Shahdara remains tense as several Christian families have fled the area fearing for life. However, Pakistani media's silence in such cases of #blasphemy has become a new normal. #Pakistan
Pakistan govt proposes same sentence for blasphemers, false accusers. Easier said than done. Once someone is even accused of #blasphemy, they are doomed! The mob doesn't care about the accuser/accusation. Case in point: #MashalKhan #AsiaBibi #JunaidHafeez tribune.com.pk/story/1637205/…
