#AtheistRepublic
The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.
Protests began on July 1st after a WiFi device was installed at Star City Mall in Karachi, and a QR code on the billboard of the Samsung mobile company was declared blasphemous and insulting the Prophet Muhammad by a group of believers. The mob burned the mall property, wrecked the electronics store, and some even attacked Samsung's staff. The Karachi police arrived and arrested 27 individuals... all employees of Samsung. The police, understanding the gravity of the situation, switched off all WiFi devices in the mall. Samsung issued a statement saying, "With reference to the recent developments in Karachi, Samsung Electronics stands firm on its stance that the company has the utmost respect for all religious sentiments and beliefs and holds the religion of Islam in utmost respect." In a similar incident last December, a Pakistani man alleged that Pepsico had printed a QR code with the name of Prophet Muhammad on its 7UP bottles and threatened to burn down the truck driving the bottles.
