Punjab, Pakistan. Christian Boy, age 14 abducted and sexually abused by 5 Men.

Culprits claim to be untouchable as Punjab Police refused to register FIR or Arrest them.  14 Year Old Christian Boy abducted & sexually abused eagerly waits for his application to be processed & justice.

Sheikhupura, Punjab Pakistan. Makki Police Station refused to register FIR & refused to arrest the five culprits who abducted Gulfam Masih, a 14 year old Christian boy and sexually abused him reported on 29th May 2020.

Gulfam Masih as other normal boys of his age went out to market and was jumped by Muhammad Ali, Abdul Rehman and three more men who injured Gulfam Masih’s jaw by hitting him, dazzled by the hit Gulfam Masih was dragged to the nearby bushes where all five of them sexually molested the boy and left him there unconscious.

Upon finding Gulfam Masih and knowing the brutality Gulfam’s elder brother went to local Police station at Makki, Sheikhupura where he was pushed out, suffered abusive language by police officials who refused to receive the application against the culprits stating they are the untouchables of the local area and Police is not allowed to perform any proceedings on this case.

As this issue went viral on social media among various human rights platform the Punjab Government stepped in and the application of Gulfam Masih was received by police station but still culprits roam freely and are proving the fact that they belong to the untouchables class in Pakistan.

The Grassroots reality is that all the majority population in Pakistan is untouchables especially when they do any harm or oppression against Christians in Pakistan. 

All system starts to create gateways through deliberate systematic delays and creating flaws just to protect the culprits as they belong to same religious group VS the Christian complainant.

Let's Pray for Forgiveness of Pakistan, Amen 🙏

 

Christophobia Flourishing in Pakistan under Government's sponsored propaganda.

Pakistan, Christophobia flourishing under Government’s sponsored foreign propaganda telecast on National Television in Pakistan.  

For last 70 years Christians in Pakistan are already facing enslaved situation due to absence of basic human rights, social exclusion from all segments of society, discrimination in national level polices, Children & minor age girls abduction & rape situations, Christian owned properties being snatched, false accusations & imprisonments, exclusion from progressive programs & almost all crimes against Christian community go unpunished is a normal routine in Pakistan.

Now furthermore without any impact assessment the Government of Pakistan is injecting more religious based hatred against Christians with enhanced level of Christophobia in already overdosed Pakistani society through telecasting a foreign propaganda drama dubbed in urdu language is being telecast on National Television & it has started to show its results. Watch the video,

Tiktok Video by Pakistani Youth

This tiktok videos and dozens more are circulating on social media where Pakistani youth is displaying their hatred against Christian faith. In this video three men with Christian Cross are displayed as begging for mercy and the person sitting on the couch kicks one of them.

This is the result of previous 70 years Gov. Policies and new propaganda's telecast on national TV & there is a clear rise in number of attacks on Churches, Assaults against Christians, Christians property grab incidents, Abduction & rape incidents & most alarming situation comes in the form of no accountability & arrest of culprits by most of the law enforcement authorities. 

If that's what Government wants to achieve i must say we the Christians in Pakistan won't beg for mercy, will do our best to protect our children,belongings & continue our efforts to make Pakistan a place which we can be proud of. Hopefully Government authorities in Pakistan will revisit their priorities regarding future of Christians in Pakistan.   

Furthermore i request our Government authorities to kindly educate Pakistani youth, not to try this against Christians living in Europe, America, UK, Australia and many more known as developed Christian countries because they have a vast experience of tackling this sort of invasions & mindset. 

Lets Hope for the Best & wait n watch....

Land Mafia attempts to grab Church Property, Punjab Government Responded!

Land Mafia attempts to grab Church Property, Police ensured protection of Christian community, Minister Punjab Usman Buzdar stands tall, Minister Human Rights/Minorities Affairs Ejaz Alam Augustine refuses to bow down against influential political pressure & proceeds with registration of FIR against culprits.

Punjab Pakistan, Ittehad Chemicals, Hakeempura, Tehsil Ferozwala, District Sheikhupura. On 9^th May 2020, the local Church was closed due to necessary measures of maintaining social distancing during pandemic Covid-19. Unfortunately the Local Land Mafia headed by Aoun Abbas had other ideas in mind to forcibly grab the Church property. Along with a group of culprits they attacked the Church boundary wall, destroyed the main gate and disrespected the Holy Cross.

During this act of destroying the Church property women and children of Christian community starting shouting with loud cries and people started to gather. Aoun Abbas and gang started threatening Christian community to stay away or they’ll kill anyone who tries to interfere in their act of vandalizing the Church construction. Church Pastor immediately contacted Police helpline 15 and within few moments the local police station sent two vehicles of their emergency respond unit.

Upon arrival of Police vehicles Aoun Abbas along with his gang of culprits disappeared from the scene. Local influential politicians especially the Member National Assembly who are on vacations due to covid-19 measures started interfering in police matters and tried their level best to create hurdles in law & justice implementation by not letting the Police register an FIR (Official First Information Report).

Local Pastor of the Church effectively used social media platforms and recorded a video of the incident scene and this video started circulating among Christian activist groups. Someone noticed this incident & immediately sent this video to Ejaz Alam Augustine (Minister Human Rights/Minorities Affairs Punjab).

Ejaz Alam Augustine refused to bow down against the political pressure from National Assembly groups & at once directed his District representative Sharoon Rokas to report at crime scene and fulfills all the necessary measures. With the direct interference of Minister Human Rights & Minorities Affairs Punjab an official FIR was registered against Aoun Abbas and group of culprits and Police are now effectively handling this matter.

By this above mentioned situation it is observed that Influential Political representatives do interfere in the role and responsibilities of Provincial and District level matters & previously as PM. Imran Khan stated that he will ensure implementation of Justice at grassroots level and He must keep a strict check and balance on the National assembly individuals’ irrelevant interference.

Overall this response from Punjab Government, Punjab Police & especially Ejaz Alam Augustine has encouraged Christians in Punjab Province a lot and this can strengthen this belief even more if the National Level Politicians (Even if they belong to Pakistan Tehreek-E-Insaaf) stop their interference in Provincial, District and especially in the role & responsibilities of Human Rights & Minorities Affairs concerning Christians in province of Punjab.

Christian Boy brutally tortured to death for ‘Polluting’ Tube-Well Water.

Saleem Masih, age 22, was bathing in a tube-well when he was allegedly tortured by local landowners in bagiana village,  Family claims local police officials ‘acted as spectators’ as they pleaded assailants to let them take Saleem to hospital.

Punjab, Pakistan:  A Christian laborer was brutally tortured by local landowners in District Kasur three days ago on accusations that he had ‘polluted’ their tube-well water by bathing in it died due to his severe injuries on Friday.

Saleem Masih, 22, was brought to the General Hospital in a critical condition on Thursday,  “On Feb 25, Working as laborer Saleem had finished unloading chaff in fields in Bagiana village and was rinsing himself off in the tube-well water when a group of men, including Sher Dogar, Iqbal, Altaf, Jabbar and Haji Muhammad were informed  that a Christian is bathing in their tube well. They rushed over, pulled him out of the water and began beating him,” Saleem’s father Ghafoor Masih said.

“They cursed and abused Saleem for ‘polluting’ the water, calling him a ‘filthy Christian,’” Masih claimed, adding that the assailants then dragged the youth to their cattle farm, where they chained his hands and feet and continued to torture him with sticks and rods. “They also rolled a thick iron rod over Saleem’s entire body, causing multiple fractures and internal injuries.”

Ghafoor said that the family was informed about the incident by police officials four hours after his son was taken hostage and tortured.

“When we reached the cattle farm, we found Saleem lying unconscious on the ground, his face and body bloodied,” he said. He alleged that according to Dogar and the other men, Saleem had “committed a crime by dirtying” their well water and that his punishment was “justified”.

Masih said that after much pleading, the family was allowed to take Saleem to the hospital while the police acted like spectators.

The police’s attitude is mostly biased when they deal with matters relating to blasphemy, forced conversions and marriages of girls belonging to minority faiths especially Christians, and even in minor disputes. 

Video: Father Demands Justice 

Kasur is the same district where an young Christian couple was beaten and burned to death by a furious mob in 2014 over false allegations of blasphemy. Shahzad and Shama Masih (was pregnant), age 26 and 24 respectively.

The mob beat the two with sticks and stones before burning them in a brick kiln in front of police officials who stood watching. Post-mortem reports revealed that the two were alive when they were thrown into the kiln.

This is a cruel reality which is deeply affected by #Christophobia & is almost impossible to change because over the years previous Governments in Pakistan did nothing to change this mindset. Global Christians must focus this reality especially in Punjab Province. This mindset exists in all segments of society i.e. Educated government & private sector , Political infrastructure, Labor groups & almost in every field making it impossible for Christians to breathe in Pakistan.

Long term solution needed for the future of Christian children living in Pakistan.

Christian Women with Broken Nose Cries for Justice in Pakistan

Maryum after Physical Assault

Christians in Pakistan especially in Punjab are the most vulnerable and easy target for land grabbing mafia. Similarly at Sambrial, Punjab Pakistan. Model Police Station Village dhillam Valgan. A Christian woman i.e. Maryum , mother of two is living in her ancestors house for years and her house caught the eye of the local land mafia goon Saleem Warriach who is supported by the local influential politicians says local sources. 

After various attempt to forcibly grab house & life threatening situation by this land mafia. Maryum reached the point of decision and registered a police complaint against these culprits. An official complaint was filled and police arrested these culprits and proceeded accordingly and culprits were sent to jail by court. After few months these culprits are granted bail and they went straight to the house of maryum and attacked her once again. This time the attack was so violent that they broke her nose, teared her cloths  and left her bleeding & screaming in front of her children. 

(Warning: Graphic Content)

Video: Complete Incident Details & Footage of Maryum suffered Injuries

The worst part is that after all this brutal assault Maryum called police helpline number i.e. 15 and the concerned police station were contacted by the authorities. It is stated by sources that at the time of attack politically influential Saleem Wariach was present in the police station and due to his influence the police officials did not dare answer the 15 official call and were not ready to respond to their official helpline authorities. Isn’t that amazing?

So Police helpline department contacted another nearby police station and they responded and performed all the necessary measures to take Maryum in protective custody and other obligations of medical examination etc.

Now the main concern is that these culprits are so strong and influential that none of the Punjab’s provincial political administration and none of National level political administration has responded to the cry of Maryum for justice and protection.

Above mentioned situation demands a swift action of Pakistan’s Law enforcing agencies to counter these culprit terriorists through implementation of Operation Rud-Al-Fasad and let Christians breathe a sigh of relief in Pakistan. So far there are many news headlines by the Government authorities and less practical implementation of their claims to protect religious minorities living with in Pakistan. 

Lahore ATC (anti-terrorism court ) acquits 42 Christians in Youhanabad lynching case.

An anti-terrorism court (ATC) in Lahore on Wednesday acquitted and ordered the release of 42 Christians  who were accused in cases pertaining to the lynching of two men in Lahore's Youhanabad colony after  suicide bombings targeting two Churches in Lahore during prayers killing dozens of innocent Christians including women & children.  

The incident occurred in 2015 when twin suicide bombings outside two churches in Lahore sparked protests in Youhanabad colony. The protests turned violent and two men identified as Babar Noman, a tailor, and Hafiz Naeem, a glass cutter  were taken into police custody as suspects to be facilitators of suicide bombers and both were killed during  a angry mob attack.

In 2016, the ATC had indicted 42 Christians in different cases pertaining to the incident. Two of the accused Christian prisoners died in prison allegedly due to Christophobia based hatred resulting refusal of access to medical treatment of Christian prisoners.

The suspects had filed an application stating that they should be released because they had reached an agreement with the victims' families.

The ATC announced the verdict, acquitting all suspects, including those who passed away, after recording the statements of the victims' families, who told the court that they had arrived at an agreement with the suspects and would have no objections over their acquittal.

On behalf of Christian community in Pakistan we’re grateful to Global & Local Christian community for their generous donations & financial contribution for settlements which was paid through a local Church. Without your financial support this was not possible, also the role of Pakistan’s judiciary must be appreciated who implemented necessary measures following the fast track and acquitted all accused. 

District Bar Association Multan's Resolution against Religious Minorities.

Multan Punjab, Pakistan: In yet another example of subjugation of minorities in Pakistan, Multan Bar Association passed a resolution which forbids non-Muslim lawyers including Christians to participate in the Bar council elections in the city, local media reported.

Source: Roznama Jang, Pakistan

The resolution was presented by the lawyers of District Bar Association of Multan. It stated that the lawyers contesting bar elections will also need to submit an affidavit to prove their faith in Islam, District Bar Association of Multan must be questioned and condemned locally and globally for passing this resolution.

This resolution reflects the fruits of the last 50 years education syllabus & social teachings that is now being practiced in Pakistan. It is a reality that Christians, Hindus, Sikhs & Other religious minorities are portrayed as villains and aliens who does not belong here & deserve no development and progress in Pakistan.

It is also a fact that over the years the deliberate distortion of history has eliminated the social respect & overall contribution of Christians community’s role during the independence movement and their role in development in various segments including education, health & defense for Pakistan e.g. the key role of Dewan Bahadur S.P Singhna & Other Christian politicians who casted decisive votes for Punjab to be included in Pakistan is unknown to a common citizen belonging to majority population.

I personally am witness of the fact that at grassroots level no common citizen belonging to majority population knows about the names or role of Christians during Pakistan’s independence & no one knows the names of Christian martyrs who heroically fought and gave their lives for Pakistan during wars against neighbor country, nobody admits or realizes the Christian contribution in the field of health, education and defense of Pakistan.  

This resolution passed by District Bar Association, Multan reflects the religious racism and hatred by well educated group. Imagine how less educated groups treat Christians in Punjab, Pakistan. Christians are considered unclean and are highly discouraged to run any small business such as grocery stores, small food points, vegetable stalls and no one buys from them due to this religious hatred and bias approach and if a Christian tries to establish any selling point it fails miserably.    

Due to similar approach as this passed resolution Christians are deliberately steered towards jobs of sewage workers and the Christians who are educated and skilled serving in sectors such as Lawyers, Doctors, Nurses, Teachers etc. face harsh social & systematic discrimination and are deliberately denied progress opportunities that are announced at Government & Private sector.

In 2019, I Personally am a witness of a complete case study of a well educated, skilled Christian Nurse who was systematically victimized by authorities at Nishtar Hospital Multan during the Nursing BSN deputation opportunity announced by Punjab Government in 2019.

She qualified the merit & passed the entry test and was not included in the final list because in 2018 she stood for her right of Christian faith to conduct memorial service of her late mother, Hospital administration proved their religious hatred by comments such as that,” they don’t allow leave for memorial services” and did not allow her 3 day leave for conducting her late mother’s memorial service prayer meetings. She had positive leave balance in her record as per Government policy but she was marked absent and suffered salary deduction.

She was not allowed leave for memorial service in 2018 because back in 2014 she stood for her right to save her daughter during pregnancy as hospital authority denied her the right to avail leave when her doctor advised her rest for few days due to pregnancy complications. She had positive leave balance in her record as per Government policy but she was marked absent and suffered salary deduction.

That’s how educated and skilled working class Christians are treated by Government authorities in Pakistan targeted with Hatred & systematic Discrimination!

Majority population of Punjab & Multan must step up and condemn this act of District Bar Association Multan’s passed resolution which is based upon religious hatred.

Christians have contributed a great deal in education and health sector of Multan & Southern Punjab with existing examples such as Lasalle School Systems, Christian Hospitals, BHUs and especially during natural disasters of 2010 floods the local and global Christians stormed in & helped majority population through relief, rehab initiatives and monetary aid.

Unfortunately the common person belonging to majority population is never told about the local and global Christian contribution and Christian aid that Pakistan receives on daily basis which needs to be shared officially with common public by Federal & Provincial Governments to enhance the mutual respect among religions.

Common Pakistani citizens must be told what Christians have done for them during last 70 years and what Christians are doing for them to stand on their feet for next 70 years.

If possible the Operation Rud-Al-Fasad must step up against the responsible individuals for passing such resolutions especially in Punjab for damaging the one nation vision & theory that Quaid-E-Azam M.A Jinnah gave Pakistan in his speeches.

Let’s wait and see but let’s not raise our expectations & brainstorm the long term solution for the future of Christian children in subcontinent.

Victim Christian family claims that Punjab Police accompanied and facilitated land mafia group of 50 men to attack their home.

Video: Attackers Firing Bullets

Is Punjab Government going to arrest the Group of more than 50 men under Terrorism charges involved in murder of 18 year Christian girl i.e. Sonia & injured three other family members, accused were heavily armed; firing illegal automatic weapons. 

Lahore, Barki Road, Village Noor Baksh Challar Punjab, Pakistan.  Since 2016 a land dispute was going on among Christian Family representative Saddique Masih and Muhammad Arshad. Court decision was favoring Saddique Masih to be the lawful owner of the property but Muhammad Arshad ego was hurt as he was not ready to accept defeat by a Christian and decided to use force for what he believe should be in his possession instead of Christian family. 

At night a group of approximately 50 men (claimed by affected family), heavily armed with automatic weapons (which by law are illegal and prohibited to carry or use) launched a massacre targeting vulnerable Christian family of Saddique Masih, As seen in the video shared above Christians were unarmed, holding few sticks in hands hoping to defend their home and family which proved of no use against guns and direct firing.

Discrimination based upon Christophobia, mostly Christians in Pakistan are deliberately refused by related authorities to apply and obtain gun license for self defense which leads to the situation of Christian population as sitting ducks in Pakistan. Please watch the video (shared above) for an example.    

In result of this brutality and 18 year old girl Sonia was killed (She was to get married after three months and our heart is deeply saddened to see her end up like this) and 3 other family members are injured. Now Let’s wait and see if the Punjab government acts accordingly against this group and as claimed by the victims the involvement of Punjab Police officials who accompanied the attackers should be equally weighted and responsible facilitators should be arrested and charged as well.

Secondly, The key point is going to be the effort and skill that Punjab Government is going to use to arrest this group of culprits. As we do remember that few years back when a Church was targeted by suicide bombers and many Christians were killed and injured at Youhanabad, Lahore. After the suicide blasts the outraged crowd captured two of the alleged facilitators (belonging to majority population) of suicide bombers and killed them (Which was a completely wrong act to take law into own hands and murder of two human being cannot be justified by no means what so ever).  

After that incident Punjab government acted accordingly and used all tactical and technical tools including the footages of the passing by Christian spectators which were also arrested and are behind bars for almost four years and all sort of tactics are still being applied on them to accept and take responsibility of the murder of those two alleged facilitators. We must expect similar efforts by Punjab government to use all tactical and technical efforts to arrest accused Muhammad Arshad and all men in that group(approx. 50 men) who were involved in attacking Christian family and murder of Sonia.        

Let’s wait and see.  

Christian Head Mistress Victim of Christophobia based Systematic Discrimination in Pakistan.

A Christian woman, Rubina Anjum serving as Government School's Head Mistress at  Bngali, Pakistan requests and demands for justice through a video message claiming to be victim of Christophobia based systematic discrimination that exists against Christians in Pakistan.

In her statement Rubina Anjum stated that,” I am serving this school for last 15 years as Head Mistress,  I had a wonderful time, my all staff are Muslim, all surrounding population is Muslim, my all students are Muslim. I am only Christian but I had a wonderful time, I received so much love over the years. I am the wife of a Pastor of Cathedral system, they offered me to join them but I refused, I started this school from scratches.

Especially after Disaster 2005 earthquake, I’ve passed its construction design myself, after 2005 earthquake there were no funds I engaged and mobilized local community to initiate construction of this school, they offered me funds but I requested them and to help in rehabilitation of this school practically and I love every single brick laid in this school’s foundation. With the passage of time our school flourished with 100 % results. All my senior officials who visited our school appreciated me and my team’s efforts.

To prove that there is a log book present in all government’s schools and there is one in our school as well. Anyone can see the comments on that.

2018 Maria Rasheed joined as AEO. She visited my school, I introduced myself. She came again next day and demanded expense record of previous years from 2015 to 2017. There is a consistent electricity load shedding problem in bangali defence phase one. 

I told her that I’ll make backup copies and handover the official reports but she pressurized and insisted to be delivered instantly and she deliberately buried my official expense record,  I asked her to return my expense details to which she replied make new (fake) receipts. I said how is this possible?

On each visit she strengthened a plot against me by pressurizing me to apply for retirement, and in front of my staff she address me using derogatory term Chouri specifically used against Christian faith in Pakistan.

She tried to influence my staff to write a complaint against me and she even nominated Ms. Nargis to become head mistress  in my place but Ms. Narigis refused stating that (Rubina Anjum) is very nice to us I won’t do it.

This is my official stamp and my designation of Head Mistress is engraved on it , Maria Rasheed told me that You are not Head Mistress, Your are S.S.T &  officially should have  derogatory term Chouri engraved on my stamp. 

I was stunned by her remarks and questioned myself what is this?

One day she came and I offered her a cold drink, she refused stating that she can’t drink water in my school because it is a sin for her to drink from my school.

She has mentally abused and tortured me so much that I’m suffering from high stress and due to my disgrace I was not able to share this situation with my husband and children. Quietly I decided to apply for retirement. She came with a clerk and said I can’t apply for retirement because she wants to make an example of me by making false accusation of mismanagement which will ruin my service.

She has insulted me so much & I am so tense that my sugar level is far more high than normal due to this tension. If I don’t get justice I’ll commit suicide, I’ll commit suicide.

I asked (Maria Rasheed) her why you are doing this to me what is my fault? She replied,” Your biggest fault is that (as a Christian) you don’t deserve to be serving at this higher position”.

Yes this is a reality in Pakistan. In government sector Christian men and women are treated like this. Systematic discrimination and persecution is planted against Christians in Pakistan, especially in Education and Health sector. 

Please watch the Video for Rubina Anjum’s complete statement shared above.

Ghotki, Sindh Pakistan. Majority population In Ghotki protecting Hindu Temples after the Mob attacks to Show Their Respect.

Locals spent the “whole night” guarding the Hindu Temples

Recently an awful incident by the hands of a mob of rioters took place against the Hindu community of Sindh, Ghotki. This incident took place based on vague accusations of blasphemy against a school principal. 

Mob ransacked a School and Hindu Temple

A crowd in Pakistan ransacked a school and Hindu temple after a Hindu principal was accused of religious blasphemy by his student because boy was not performing well in studies and Hindu principal was keeping an eye on the boy for the sake of his better future. This latest case raised concerns about the fate of religious minorities in Pakistan.

The principal had been taken into defensive custody and police were examining both the alleged blasphemy and the rioters.

“It seems the principal had not done anything intentionally,” said by the district police chief, Furrukh Ali. Hindus make up about 1.6 percent of Pakistan’s population of 208 million, this incident left the Hindus of Ghotki reeling in shock and suffering after their properties, homes, lives and temples were ransacked.

However, local majority population of the community are now showing their support for their Hindu neighbors with an act of kindness by gathering at the Hindu temples to make sure that the Hindu community there had their protection. Furthermore, they also spent the “whole night” guarding the temple, symbolically that’s overwhelming.

Sindh, Pakistan. Hindu medical student found dead under mysterious conditions.

In a suspected hate crime, a Hindu medical student belonging to Ghotki, Sindh was found dead in her hostle room with a rope tied to her neck while her room was locked from inside. Namrita, a final year student of Dental College was found dead in her hostel room. Local police said it was too early to say whether she had committed suicide or murdered.

However, her family has alleged that Chandani was killed because she was a minority. Speaking to media, her brother alleged that she had been murdered.

He said that while his sister was wearing a dupatta, the marks around her neck resembled that of a cable wire.

"There are marks on other parts of her body too like a person was holding her. We are a minority, please stand up for us," he said.

The body was shifted to the district headquarter hospital for postmortem, but the police awaited her parents to arrive from Karachi for their consent.

Nimrata was discovered when her colleagues knocked at her room's door and grew worried when she did not respond for several minutes.

They somehow managed to look inside the room from the crevice in the door.

"She was neither responding to the knocking at the door nor to our shouting," her friend told the police.

The hostel's watchman later broke open the door, only to find the student lying dead.

Larkana DIG Irfan Ali Baloch has given the incident's inquiry to SSP Masood Ahmed Bangash.

The vice-chancellor of the medical college Anila Attaur Rehman said the incident appeared to be one of suicide but the police and the medico-legal report will be able to ascertain the actual cause of death after the postmortem.

In a similar incident, a student of Sindh University, Naila Rind, was found dead from her hostel room on January 1, 2017. Her body was found hanging from the ceiling fan.
