The Islamists have threatened Edwin Paul, an attorney and evangelist to leave the city within 24 hours unless to face consequences on taking case of loan to administration of Mehboob Masih who was under pressure from Muslim money lender to pay amount with compound interest. The Islamists broke in home of Edwin Paul on night of September 27, 2010, and shot him dead , his wife Ruby Paul and five children in execution style.
