district on Thursday night over blasphemy
...the act of insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence to a deity, or sacred objects, or toward something considered sacred or inviolable. Some religions consider it to be a crime. In Pakistain you can commit blasphemy by looking cross-eyed at a Koran...
allegations, the local police said.

The law enforcers had taken the suspect into custody and shifted him to the cop shoppe, the district police officer (DPO) said, adding that later the mob took him from there and set him on fire.

Later the unruly group of people attacked the Madyan cop shoppe, torched it as well damaged the police vehicles, the DPO added.

"Eight cops sustained injuries after outrageous protesters stormed the cop shoppe," police officials said, adding that the suspect of alleged desecration died after being "tortured and burnt alive" by the mob.

In a similar incident that took place last month, enraged people attacked a house belonging to a Christian man in Punjab’s Sargodha district over an alleged desecration incident.

The situation turned violent mostly peaceful when a mob attacked the man's house in the Mujahid Colony area, damaging his belongings and torching a shoe factory established within it. They also burnt tyres and damaged electricity installations in the area.

Upon receiving the information, a heavy contingent of police surrounded the area and shifted the accused and his family to an undisclosed location after rescuing them.

Several arrests were carried out by law enforcement agencies following the violent mostly peaceful incident.
