Now That’s Why Pakistan Is A S***hole – Volume 133 – Relative of Asia Bibi murdered.

 

We know by now that, because Pakistan is run by the ideology of Islam, it is an unsafe place, it’s a shithole in fact. It’s unsafe for women, for children and especially unsafe for religious minorities.

Many regular readers of this blog and observers of Pakistan in general will be aware of the case of the Christian woman Asia Bibi who was put under sentence of death for allegedly blaspheming the Islamic ‘prophet’ Mohammed. Eventually the Pakistani higher courts saw sense and rescinded the death sentence and Ms Bibi then sought sanctuary in a non-Muslim country along with her children. It was hoped by many that Ms Bibi could have come to the UK but Theresa May’s government showed complete cowardice and said no as they were worried that her presence here could stir up all manner of Islamic violence.

Sadly although Ms Bibi is now safe in a non-Muslim country, the same cannot be said for her relatives who still remain in Pakistan. According to a report in an Indian news outlet called NDTV and by David Wood the Christian commentator, who is currently suspended from You Tube for highlighting the dire position faced by oppressed Christians in the Islamic world, jihadist tragedy has struck Ms Bibi’s family. The reports state that Ms Bibi’s brother in law Younus has been murdered by Muslim radicals in the Punjab province of Pakistan.

NDTV said:

Younus, the brother-in-law of Asia Bibi, a Pakistani Christian woman who spent years in jail before her acquittal,  was killed in Sheikhupura city of Punjab province in Pakistan on Monday.
According to the FIR, Younus had gone to his farms on May 24 and did not return home at night. His body with throat slit was traced in the farm the following morning.

Personally I don’t believe that we need to look that far or speculate too hard as to the religion professed in this case by the murderer. It is more than a little likely that he was killed by a Muslim eager to kill someone associated with Asia Bibi and considerably less likely that this was the result of a robbery or some other non Islam related issue.

We know from what has happened previously to those who have spoken out in favour of Ms Bibi that Islamic radicals will kill those who speak in favour of the abolition of Pakistan’s blasphemy laws.

NDTV added:

In 2011, Salman Taseer, the influential governor of Punjab was assassinated after he made headlines by appealing for the pardon of Asia Bibi, who had been sentenced to death for allegedly insulting Prophet Muhammad.

A month after Taseer was killed, Religious Minorities Minister Shahbaz Bhatti, a Christian who spoke out against the laws, was shot dead in Islamabad, underlining the threat faced by critics of the law.

The murder of Younus is horrific but it is part of a terrible pattern that is plain to see in Pakistan. Those who speak out for liberty or for the rights of religious minorities or who are members of these minorities themselves, face oppression, discrimination and death at every turn.

      Pakistan is indeed scary and fanatical and, as we saw from former PM Theresa May’s refusal to allow sanctuary to Ms Bibi, it has exported its violent fanaticism across the world.
