Karachi, Pakistan — Police in southern Pakistan shot dead a blasphemy suspect during an alleged shootout with armed men, officials said Thursday, the second such apparent extra-judicial killing in a week, drawing condemnation from human rights groups.

Police identified the slain man as Shah Nawaz, a doctor in Umerkot district, Sindh province, who had gone into hiding two days ago after being accused of insulting Islam’s prophet Mohammed and sharing blasphemous content on social media.

Local police chief Niaz Khoso said Nawaz was “killed just by chance” on Wednesday night when officers signaled two men riding on a motorcycle to stop in Mirpur Khas, a city in Sindh.

He said instead of stopping, the men opened fire and tried to flee, prompting police to return fire. One of the suspects fled on the motorcycle, while the other was killed, he said.

Khoso claimed it was only after the shootout that officers learned the slain man was the doctor being sought by them for the alleged blasphemy.

Videos circulating on social media showed local clerics throwing rose petals at police and praising officers for killing the blasphemy suspect. There was no immediate clarification from the Sindh government about the circumstances in which the suspect was killed.



In June, a mob broke into a police station in the northwestern town of Madyan, snatched a detainee who was a tourist, and then killed him over allegations that he had desecrated Islam’s holy book.

Last year, a mob in Punjab province attacked churches and homes of Christians after claiming they saw a local Christian and his friend desecrating pages from a Quran. The attack in the district of Jaranwala drew nationwide condemnation, but Christians say the men linked to the violence are yet to be put on trial.

Yep,   ....on the way to hell, in a hand-basket.

GOOD, AND EVIL....
Whenever we choose to become tolerant of evil [in our midst] [ungodly values], it is certain, as night follows day, that we ourselves, will become evil.

i.e.
If we are tolerant of what is clearly evil, it is because we now ARE evil.

When we embrace the concept of 'tolerance', but what we are prepared to tolerate is clearly evil,
...we become those, who are evil, OURSELVES.

Our 'tolerance' of evil, is not tolerance.

It is (a) wickedness.

Cult of death
The devils cult

They can't help it.

They just love to kill.

Oh, and screw goats.
