Death sentence for blasphemy
MULTAN: District and Sessions Court Judge Bahawalnagar Malik Mukhtar Ahmed Khokhar gave the death sentence and a fine of Rs50,000 to blasphemer Niaz Ahmed for making derogatory remarks about the Muslim Prophet Muhammad. The court official on Wednesday said that Mr Ahmed, 30, used objectionable words on July 30, 2003 in the presence of 12 people at a motel in Rab-Nawazpura Village when one man greeted all the persons present. Mr Ahmed did not respond to the greeting. Instead, he started making derogatory remarks about Prophet Muhammad.
"Duh... I got a dozen witnesses here. I think I'll make derogatory remarks about the prophet..." Anybody get the idea the entire story's not being told? Or did the poor guy just reach the breaking point and holler: "I can't take any more of this Islamic crap!"?
