Christians slam Sargodha church inferno
 MULTAN: The Pakistan Minority Alliance (PMA) has condemned torching of a church in Sargodha and demanded arrest of perpetrators. Naveed Jeeva, a Provincial Assembly member, said some people wanted to create a row between Muslims and publication of caricatures of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) in European newspapers," he said. Some unidentified people had set a church alight at Noori Gate on Tuesday morning. Reports said assailants entered the church after scaling its wall at about 5:00am and set it on fire after throwing petrol on its doors, windows and furniture. Hundreds of Christians gathered at the church to express their anguish over the incident. Muslim clerics also reached the site and condemned the act. Posted by: Fred 2006-03-02 |
