Pakistan: Christian mother, son allegedly murdered over blasphemy charges
Islamabad: A Christian mother and her son were allegedly murdered in broad daylight in Pakistan's Punjab province over charges of blasphemy, media reports said.
Yasmin and her son Usman Masih were brutally gunned down by a mob led by a person named Muhammad Hassan in Gujranwala town of Pakistan’s Punjab province after an argument with their Muslim neighbours, reports have claimed as reported by Times Now.
The incident highlighted the state of minorities in Pakistan.
Reacting over the attack on the Christian family, Akali Dal spokesperson Manjinder Singh Sirsa told Times Now, “We have seen time and again that Pakistan Government is simply not taking actions on such incidents. It's high time that the UN should intervene and look into the matter.”
