In Pakistan's Swat Valley, a mob lynched Mohammad Ismail, a tourist accused of desecrating the Quran, after storming a police station where he was being held for his protection. Despite police efforts to shield him, the mob seized Ismail, killed him, and set his body on fire, incited by announcements from local mosques. This incident follows a pattern of mob violence fueled by blasphemy accusations in Pakistan, where such charges can incite deadly riots despite no official executions for blasphemy convictions. The violence resulted in injuries to multiple police officers and civilians, prompting authorities to file cases against the attackers and deploy additional forces to restore order. The event has sparked widespread condemnation and raised concerns about religious intolerance and the enforcement of blasphemy laws in Pakistan.
