Pakistani Christians Concerned Political Unrest Could Lead to Persecution
04/25/2021 Pakistan (International Christian Concern) – According to Mission Network News, Christians in Pakistan are concerned they will be the targets of religiously motivated violence following days of protest by supporters of the Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP).
TLP supporters took to the streets in protest after the government arrested Khadim Hussain Rizvi, the party’s founder and leader. The conflict between the TLP, which believes anyone accused of blasphemy should be put to death, and the government stems from a demand that the French ambassador should be expelled from the country over statements made by French officials TLP leaders found to be blasphemous.
