Highly condemnable if true.

 

[SipahSalar]

Very sad incident if true, i guess it was a revenge attack against what happened to the two passerbys being burnt.

 

[Goenitz]

doing the saem with culprits would set an example.

Shocking News, but I am shocked that indians are raising voice in favour of Minorities..
Posative Gesture is that Indians realized the importance and rights of minorities...

 

[SrNair]

God helps poor minorities in Pakistan.Of Course majorities will create problems bbut state should atleast give them constitutional rights.Lack .of such a clause in Pak Constitution is indeed encouraging brutal acts like this.

Creative syllabus in Pak school is showing its dark syllabus.

 

[Kambojaric]

Horrible news. The authorities need to investigate this mosque that the kids left. They may very well have been incited to commit this horrendous act by some looney mullah. It hurts to say but such an attack isnt even surprising given how brainwashed some people have become as far as Islam and religion are concerned.

 

[Pakistanisage]

These are criminals who routinely kill , burn , maim people of all faith.

 

[saud akmal]

Minorities have no problem here,but yes they have the problem of Terrorism like all Pakistani,s and more than 80,000 pakistani,s killed so far in terror attacks,and you can count the figures of attacks on minorities on your finger tips,but the rest of attacks were on mostly Islamic Places, they are safe and happy here no need to worry for our neighbors please raise voice for indian minoritie,

we are Pakistani,s by Nation

south asia...

 

[Solomon2]

Horrible news. The authorities need to investigate -

Why should they? If they do they put themselves at risk and if they don't who's going to fire them from their jobs?

 

[A1Kaid]

Why should they? If they do they put themselves at risk and if they don't who's going to fire them from their jobs?

See how bad Pakistan is Solomon2? That's why you should never go to Pakistan, because some youths are burning non-Muslims alive, it is so terrible.

[El Weirdo]

A question to Ponder upon :- Why do a lot of these attacks happen after Friday `prayers` ?
Apologies if my statement made some muslims think about it .
