Four assailants arrested for sexually molesting girl Pakistan

Actually it's quite the opposite - Dawn is a left-wing newspaper and its intentions would've been more to criticise the police in case the allegation turned out to be false; unlikely, maybe, but that's why they added the word ''alleged'' before ''involvement''.
The Pakistani Hindu community is just as safe as other Pakistanis.
DAWN is not liberal,the newspaper is just obsessed with India specially modi, there is always a special thread about rapes in India in it & as for Hindu being safe stats speak for themselves

5,000 Hindus migrating to India every year, NA told - Pakistan - DAWN.COM

Hard to believe. But if it's true then good for you guys. Anyway the news article with it's heading and content says otherwise or at-least i felt that way..
I'm saying this with Dawn's past articles and reporting in mind, you might have felt differently but generally that is what they do, highlight discrimination and criticize it.

They are known for being liberal and recently they were being criticized for being too liberal, in a thread on this forum.

This thread's title is stupid. The criminals should be dealt harshly. This has nothing to do with their religion.

SHAMEFUL JOURNALISM

When was the last time we said that a muslim group of idiots lynched two innocent brothers in sialkot? why do we have to put a religious label with every criminal? why didn't we say last year that a muslim man raped an underage boy in a mosque in lahore?

how are we any different from those who label all terrorists as muslim terrorists? what does religion have to do with terrorism or a crime? did hindu scriptures say that you should rape? if no then this sort of cheap/irrational thinking must stop otherwise this religious hatred will consume our society ... it has already shattered the calm of 60's and 70's Pakistan... we must refrain from this path of religious hatred inorder to bring peace.

Which stats? Hindus are AS SAFE AS OTHER PAKISTANIS. Dawn is liberal enough. Of course an Indian will see everything from another angle, too much exposure to your media does that.

why didn't we say last year that a muslim man raped an underage boy in a mosque in lahore?
We did actually, and highlighted the fact that he worked in the mosque as a religious leader.

Either way, they shouldn't have mentioned their religion in the headline.

You must be very busy then whenever you visit PDF, correcting a hell lot of posters, and I would assume as you are fond of truth so lot of Indian posters too would have been corrected by you?
Actually, yes. In fact most of the posters I have tried to correct and argued with are Indians. You can check my posting history, if you want to know. I do my best to point out incorrect statements, no matter who makes them. Unlike you, I don't check their flags before doing so.

Or badmouthing and lies against Pakistan are acceptable? And in majority of cases Islam too?
Actually I did not bother to pick a fight with Pakistanis badmouthing Indians. I only pointed out to you that a lot of them have done that, since you were telling me that this is your "domestic issue". I wanted to know why you didn't tell that to Pakistanis who unnecessarily talked about India on this thread.

There is nothing to be gained by scolding people for obscenity or badmouthing. I did not say anything when one Pakistani called us "Indian turds". But there is something to be gained by correcting mistaken assertions. That is what I was doing in the post you first responded to.

Why would I want to know your faith or discuss it with you?
I'm not sure - but you are the one who asked me what the equivalent of 'ummah' is, in my faith. You are the one who enquired about my faith - amusingly, without even knowing what my faith is.

You may be interested in my faith, have met you there discussing it, but not me unless you invite me to.

Oh yes, I have discussed your faith. I have also discussed Hinduism, which you assume to be my faith. I have argued and debated long and hard with hindutva oriented members. Yes, I am interested in all these faiths - because people's faiths have a real impact on the world, on society. But I am not interested in the faith of a rapist or rape victim, unless the faith was the reason for the rape.

So for me Indian is Hindu

Well then, once again in the interest of truth, I have to point out that you are mistaken. Indian is not hindu. We have the largest populations of Sikhs and Jains in the world, one of the largest populations of muslims in the world, one of the largest population of Sunni and Shia muslims in the world. We also have a large number of Buddhists and Christians - the state where the incident of lynching a rape accused happened (which you mentioned for point scoring) is 90% Christian. I wonder how the muslims in India would feel, to hear you saying that they are hindus. "Indian is hinidu", as you said. They are used to hindu fundamentalist organizations like VHP saying that, so it's not new. But it's still wrong.

or now you would like to contradict your countrymen like @doppelganger who think half of my countrymen are Hindu too.
Not sure what he means by that. If I come across a post like that, I will be sure to counter it.

So what is the parallel then?

Parallel to what? Islamic belief in an ummah? There is no parallel in Hinduism, or any other Indian religion. That's the whole point. That is why Indians make fun of Pakistanis for trying to speak on behalf of Indian muslims, although it is none of their concern. They do so because of the notion of ummah-hood. If Indians try to speak on behalf of Pakistani hindus for the same reason, you can call them out on it. I did no such thing.

Yeah because in India mobs lynch and kill the alleged offender before that once it has been found that offender belongs to minority community. And then make that alleged offender a BD migrant until it is found out that offender belonged to a military family. Just a norm in India.

PS: What is religons?

Yes, that's the norm in India. Because it has happened a grand total of ONE time. So it's the "norm". Brilliant.

Definition of norm: A standard, model or pattern regarded as typical.

PS: Congratulations for spotting a trivial and inadvertent spelling mistake. This has to be one of your best accomplishments on PDF to date. Take a bow.

Honestly do I give a hoot who was who? What pathetic and low quality reporting from the paper itself. Only reflecting the growing crap that now occupies the grey matter of many Pakistanis.

Either way, they shouldn't have mentioned their religion in the headline.

As far as the first point is concerned, check this link from the same newspaper regarding the mosque boy raping case Molested boy found hanged in mosque
No religious headline e.g., "Muslim man/imam rapes a boy in a mosque" but the same newspaper attaching a religious adjective for criminals belonging to the minority, this is a case of hypocrisy.

for the second point
Yes i agree with you 100%, they should not mention religions of the criminals. Religions never have nothing to with these petty crimes.

In that case it was relevant, precisely because he was a religious leader. Not to blame the religion, but to highlight the fact that the person is in a position of authority over many other boys. Besides, when a religious "leader" commits such an act, we do tend to mention the fact that he is a religious leader - that's how it is everywhere. The catholic church's pedophilia scandal - hundreds of catholic priests have been accused of child molestation over several decades, and their religion gets mentioned. But if an ordinary catholic person commits child abuse, the title would be "35 year old found guilty of child molestation". Not "Catholic found..." Similarly in India, there have been a few cases of hindu babas accused of rape or exploitation - and their status as a religious leader is always highlighted. (Asaram Bapu, Yogi Nityananda something etc are recent examples.) But not if a random hindu rapes somebody.

So lynching and mob attacks are not a norm in India. Particularly when it comes to members of minority community. I can see a delusional bharati in you living in his own lala land.

PS: Just asked meaning of that word. No need to go that much defensive. :)

No, lynching is definitely not the norm in India. Far from it. But your post was even more specific - you said that the norm is to abduct muslim rape accused people from jail, lynch them, and then claim he was a Bangladeshi, before finding out he was from a military family. That's what you asserted to be the norm in India. It has happened one time in the past 68 years - and possibly, just once in the past 68,000 years.

PS: Oh my apologies. I thought you were pointing out an insignificant spelling mistake. I wasn't defensive, I was sarcastic. But if you really were wondering at the meaning of the word, then let me patiently explain it to you. Unfortunately, there are some people who need to be walked through everything. You see, I meant to type "religions". I accidentally missed the letter 'i', and typed "religons". That word doesn't really exist. But the word "religions" does. Would you like to know what that means, do you have to be told? Buy a dictionary.

Bold part was a complete, solid and pure bullsh!t. So didn't read after it. Such a big lie right at the start. Disgusting.

OK. So you wanted to write "religion". Good. I thought religons is also some word in English Language originated from great India and by Indians thousands of years ago when they were traveling to different planets in their spaceships. :)

Hardly seen people reacting and passing similar judgements on americans and western populace when every single news in their media unnecessarily highlights and reports every crime related unrelated as 'a muslim did so and so etc'.
No , such news reporting is not reflective of pakistani mindsets , these are same germs showing their face around,that our wannabe media has contracted from western media and more of a reflection of west's general population's mindset as not only they are fed on such junk reporting they also seem to want more of it and hence,since decades rank pretty high on islamophobia,racism and xenophobia quotients even before any war broke out.

Title show sick mentality of OP! The crime is crime whoever done it no mater of cast creed religion. Hope justice prevailed and culprits get severe punishment as per law.
