Lahore, Aug 16 (PTI) At least five churches were vandalised and ransacked by an angry mob in Pakistan’s Punjab province on Wednesday over allegations of desecration of Islam’s holy book, forcing authorities to deploy paramilitary forces to protect the minority Christian community who were besieged.
The incidents took place after a Christian man and his sister allegedly desecrated the Quran and made objectionable comments, police said.
The incident took place in Jaranwala tehsil of Faisalabad district of Punjab, some 130 km from the provincial capital Lahore.
