Hindu worker in Pakistan killed over dispute, not blasphemy
Much has been made in the press the previous few days over the deplorable killing of an innocent Hindu worker in Karachi over blasphemous remarks. Now some reports are emerging that the murder occurred due to false rumours being spread about blasphemy and that the real reasons were a personal dispute.
It is certainly not uncommon for individuals to hide under the cover of blasphemy in order to settle private scores.
The fact however remains that an innocent person was killed, and that religion was unjustly pushed into carry out the crime. The authorities must forcefully persecute the perpetuators of this evil act and set an example so that religious minorities in the country have a greater sense of security in the system.
