Two Christian men, as well as 129 Muslims were also arrested after a mob angered by an alleged Quran desecration attacked dozens of churches and nearly two dozen homes belonging to minority Christians in Janawala, Pakistan.
A mob on Wednesday carried out an alleged act of desecration in Jaranwala, one of Pakistan’s most violent attacks against Christians.
Bilal Mhmood said Raja Amir was arrested along with his friend for torn pages of a Quran, and insulting remarks were written on the other pages.
Christian residents gradually returned to home after seeing the destruction. Rizwan Khan, the regional police chief, reported that 129 suspected rioters had been arrested.
Shazia Amjad was sobbing outside of her burnt home when she remarked, “All at once, we heard that there were mobs coming to attack churches and destroy homes.”
She was in a safe area with her parents, but the mob set fire to furniture and other household items. Her possessions also were taken.
Others Christians also described the same ordeals, and they expressed confusion.
The rioters threw away furniture, other household goods and his own home after it was burned.
What was the reason for that?” He asked, “What had we done wrong?”
Khalid Mukhtar a local pastor, believes the majority of Jaranwala’s 17 churches have been attacked.
In a matter of a few days, churches and houses damaged by storms will be restored. Victims will also be compensated.
Anwaarul-ul-Haq Kakar (caretaker PM) ordered that police arrest the rioters after violence.
The regional police chief said that the mob immediately attacked Christian churches and homes. Authorities were attacked as well by the rioters. However, the police intervened and used batons with Muslim clerics and elders.
Videos and photos posted on social networks show angry individuals throwing bricks to set a fire to a Church. Another video shows four churches being attacked by attackers who throw outside furniture, set it on fire and break their windows.
While a cheering crowd watches, a man ascends to the top of a building and uses a hammer repeatedly to hit a cross made from steel before it is removed.
International and domestic human rights groups have condemned the violence.
Amnesty International believes that Pakistani blasphemy legislation should be repealed.
The blasphemy law in Pakistan can lead to the death penalty for those who insult Islam or Islamic religious leaders. Authorities haven’t carried out executions for blasphemy, but accusations often lead to violence, lynchings and murders.
According to rights groups, blasphemy claims have led to the intimidation of religious minorities and settling personal scores.
Vedant Patel, the spokesperson for the U.S. State Department stated that “we support the peaceful expression of freedom and freedom of religion or belief to all.”
