Hero’s welcome
Published in The News on February 9, 2018
The suspects released in the
Mashal Khan murder case were given a hero’s welcome by two religious parties.
Should we be really surprised that the two religious parties are openly
praising those who were acquitted in the Mashal case (despite being clearly
involved in his murder)? Haven’t we seen enough evidence of the gradual
radicalisation of our people, evidence like the glorification of Mumtaz Qadri?
The chief justice should take a
suo moto notice of one released suspect who claimed that he would not spare
anyone who committed blasphemy – implying that he is one of those who killed
Mashal Khan. The Supreme Court should also investigate why the KP police
allowed the PTI’s councillor, Arif Khan, to escape after the killing.
