Dozens Held in Pakistan For Trying to Lynch Brothers Accused of Blasphemy

Pakistani police detained dozens of men on May 18th on charges of attacking a police station in an attempt to lynch two brothers held in jail accused of desecrating a Muslim mosque. Police took the brothers, accused of blasphemy, to a secure location along with some injured officials. Hamza Shafaat, Islamabad Deputy Commissioner, told Reuters most of the arrested men were refugees from Afghanistan. Police officer Asim Ghaffar mentioned that the mob wanted to behead the accused. The two brothers were accused of blasphemy for allegedly ripping up a banner inscribed with the names of the companions of Prophet Mohammad from the outer wall of a mosque.
