Punjab pol: 'I'd kill blasphemer'
Punjab Assembly speaker Chaudhry Afzal Sahi Thursday declared that according to Islam a blasphemer should be killed and if any blasphemer would come in front of him he would definitely kill him. He said the issue of awarding the title of Sir to blasphemer Salman Rushdie was a religious issue. Being a Muslim, he said, he was not ready to compromise on the issue. I am not a religious scholar, but I want to make it clear that a blasphemer was liable to kill, the speaker said. First, I am a Muslim and later the Punjab Assembly speaker.
