Christians slam blasphemous posts

Author: Staff Report

PESHAWAR: Christian community strongly condemned blasphemous posts on social media regarding Prophet Issa AS (Jesus) and his companions and appealed to Chief Justice of Pakistan to take stern action against responsible elements.

Addressing press conference in Peshawar Press Club on Monday, Bishop Humphrey Safaraz Patel said that Christian community is constantly engaged in efforts for bringing interfaith harmony in the society and promoting peace and tolerance in society but unfortunately now publishing such defamatory posts on Facebook wall has badly hurt our sentiments in all over the country.

He appealed to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to pin-point these elements and award them vigorous punishment under article 295C of FIA cybercrime Act.
