Toba Tek Singh police arrested two Christian boys from a village in Gojra tehsil on charges of blasphemy on Tuesday, a private TV channel reported.
According to the channel, Rasheed Masih and Babu Masih had been charged in March 2007 with desecrating posters carrying the name of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The police had registered a case under Section 295-c of the Pakistan Penal Code against them after riots broke out in the town and the houses of some Christians were also attacked. However, the two boys had not been arrested until now. |
