Man accused of desecrating Quran
 Mughalpura Police registered a case against a man on Friday for setting fire to a copy of the Holy Quran for black magic.
| Hmmm... Set fire to Koran for black magick — very bad juju! |
Mughalpura resident Anwar Siddiqui told police that he was passing through the street on Friday morning when he saw his neighbour, 45-year-old fruit vendor Abdul Jabbar, sitting in a vacant plot a few yards from his house. Siddiqui said that as he approached Jabbar, he realised that he was burning the Holy Quran and chanting strange verses. He said that he immediately informed the nearby people, at which Jabbar escaped.
| Couldn't come up with a charm to protect himself against them, huh? |
Deputy Inspector General (Operations) of Police Aamir Zulfiqar Khan said that Jabbar had sent his family to Faisalabad and was carrying out magic incantations in their absence.
| Hah! They're not really in Faisalabad. They were in his pocket. He turned the lot of them into mushrooms. |
He said that the police had raided several places to arrest Jabbar but had not yet been succeeded.
| "Damn the man! It's like he's got an invisibility potion..." |
