A mob of Muslims in Pakistan recently attacked Christian churches in response to an accusation that a Christian man had desecrated a Quran. The incident occurred in Jaranwala, a Christian area in eastern Pakistan. The mob burned one church and attacked two others, throwing furniture and altars onto the street. No casualties have been reported so far. The Muslims became incensed after accusing a local Christian man and his friend of tearing pages out of a Quran and defacing it with writing. Footage shows rioters throwing bricks at Christian churches and setting them on fire, causing some Christians in the area to flee their homes for fear of being attacked. However, the police eventually intervened, arriving in force with batons and firing weapons into the air to quell the mob. They also deployed officers to protect other Christian areas in Jaranwala. Muslim clerics from Lahore and political leaders condemned the violence, with the caretaker Prime Minister stating that stern action would be taken against the culprits. Christian Bishop Azad Marshall called for the police to hold the mob accountable and ensure justice. The incident highlights the ongoing tensions and religious conflicts that exist in Pakistan. It is crucial for law enforcement authorities to ensure the safety and protection of all citizens, regardless of their religious beliefs, and for religious leaders to promote peace and harmony among different communities.
