I am writing to voice my deep concern regarding the faith-b prejudice has led to the murder of a Christian businessman meat sellers looking to grab land. The murderers are close a political coordinator of a federal minister from the ruling po party. Due to the political clout of the three culprits, they ha allowed to go scot-free. Police officers from the local polic held a jirga, i.e. an illegal and parallel court, in which the v family has been forcibly silenced and made to settle.

According to the information I have received that Mr. Nazi son of Surjan Masih, and resident of Wandala Dayal Shah, Ferozwala, District Shaikhupura, Punjab, was working as a property dealer. Masih was soliciting a property deal betwe Din and certain buyers, Mr. Hyder, Mr. Nazar, and Mr. Ach who are local butchers of the area. It was agreed the proper sold for Rupees 250,000, and the three men paid 50,000 Ru total value.

On April 4, Nazir Masih was asked by the accused to transf plot. He refused to oblige, stating that Rupees 200,000 was from their side. On the next day, Hyder, Nazar, and Achay G called Masih and asked him to meet them at the residence o Christian, Manzoor Masih, at Cavalry Park at 5 p.m.

After the meeting, Masih went out to cut grass for his cows to him Hyder, Nazar, and Achay Gujjar were hiding nearby

I am appalled that the killers wanted to justify the murder o with the argument that he had committed blasphemy. Peopl Masih’s dead body informed Masih’s son, who immediately the Police Station to file a First Information Report (FIR) a accused. However, the police refused to file a complaint.

The Christian community has been denied its right to politi representation. Faith-based prejudices have been allowed to the State so that manipulative and coercive authority can be over the minorities.

I hereby remind you that the Constitution, under Article 25 equality of citizens stating, “All citizens are equal before la entitled to equal protection of law.” However, religious disc and prejudice continues with complete impunity granted by

The International Covenant on Civil and Political Right (IC which Pakistan is a signatory, states in Article 26, “All pers equal before the law and are entitled without any discrimin equal protection of the law. In this respect, the law shall pro discrimination and guarantee to all persons equal and effect protection against discrimination on any ground such as rac sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national o origin, property, birth or other status.”

The reality however is that these guarantees exist only on p the Christian community continues to suffer in silence for n theirs.

I, therefore, call upon you them to arrest and prosecute the of the Christian property agent, take strong action against th Ground Police Station for holding an illegal jirga and forcin members to accept the amount offered by the murderers un threat of being implicated in a case of blasphemy.

I urge you to protect the aggrieved family, help them get re the religious persecution of the community, and take strong against the unconstitutional parallel justice system of jirgas perpetuates violence against the weak and vulnerable.

allowed to go scot-free. Police officers from the local polic held a jirga, i.e. an illegal and parallel court, in which the v family has been forcibly silenced and made to settle.

According to the information I have received that Mr. Nazi son of Surjan Masih, and resident of Wandala Dayal Shah, Ferozwala, District Shaikhupura, Punjab, was working as a property dealer. Masih was soliciting a property deal betwe Din and certain buyers, Mr. Hyder, Mr. Nazar, and Mr. Ach who are local butchers of the area. It was agreed the proper sold for Rupees 250,000, and the three men paid 50,000 Ru total value.

On April 4, Nazir Masih was asked by the accused to transf plot. He refused to oblige, stating that Rupees 200,000 was from their side. On the next day, Hyder, Nazar, and Achay G called Masih and asked him to meet them at the residence o Christian, Manzoor Masih, at Cavalry Park at 5 p.m.

After the meeting, Masih went out to cut grass for his cows to him Hyder, Nazar, and Achay Gujjar were hiding nearby shouted: “kill the choora” (a derogatory remark against low Christians). The three accused then butchered Nazir with sh cutting his neck and mouth. They later fled the scene, leavi a pool of blood.

I am appalled that the killers wanted to justify the murder o with the argument that he had committed blasphemy. Peopl Masih’s dead body informed Masih’s son, who immediately the Police Station to file a First Information Report (FIR) a accused. However, the police refused to file a complaint. Fo protest of local Christians, a case was filed against unknow even though witnesses and the heirs of the deceased identif accused.
