Toronto: International Christian Voice Canada (ICV) was very saddened to learn of the recent incident in Mujahid Colony, Sargodha, Pakistan on the morning of May 25, 2024, in which an extremist mob vandalized the house of 70-

The mob attempted to set fire to Mr. Masih’s house as well as a neighbouring house and factory and were threatening to lynch him; all of which was instigated by a local Cleric.

Video footage of the attack posted on social media clearly shows that officers of the Punjab police were present at the site as silent spectators, which once again points to their neglect and facilitation of the violence carried out by those involved in these crimes. 

We extend our solidarity and support to the victims of this incident, and we urge the government of Pakistan to bring all the culprits to justice and to ensure that the lives and properties of Christians and other religious minorities in Pakistan are protected.

We also urge the government to take concrete steps to curb radicalism so that this type of incident does not take place again.
