Pakistani PM orders probe into Sri Lankan torture and arson allegations

Pakistan PM orders probe into torture and burning of Sri Lankan over blasphemy charges Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday ordered a probe into the horrific lynching of a Sri Lankan man by a Pakistani mob over alleged blasphemy accusations.

The incident took place on Wazirabad Road in Sialkot earlier in the day, where hundreds of men, enraged over the “blasphemy” incident, gathered outside the factory from adjoining areas and tortured him to death before burning his body in the public.

The horrific vigilante attack on factory in Sialkot & the burning alive of Sri Lankan manager is a day of shame for Pakistan.
Several videos were circulated on social media showing hundreds of men gathered at the site surrounding the body of the Sri Lankan national.

The mob dragged the suspect (the Sri Lankan national) from the factory and severely tortured him.
