List of blasphemy cases in Pakistan

Short description: None

See also: Religion:Blasphemy in Pakistan

According to human rights groups, blasphemy laws in Pakistan are often exploited, even against Muslims, to settle personal rivalries or to persecute minorities. Almost any person that speaks out against blasphemy laws or proceedings is in danger of being lynched or killed by a mob.[1]

Arrests and death sentences issued for blasphemy laws in Pakistan go back to the late 1980s and early 1990s. Despite the implementation of these laws, no one has yet been executed by the order of the courts or government. People have only been imprisoned to await a verdict or killed at the hands of felons who were convinced that the suspects were guilty.[2][3]

1996  | On 14 October, Pakistani police arrested Ayub Masih, a Christian bricklayer, for violation of penal code § 295 – C. Muhammad Akram, a Muslim neighbour of Masih, complained to the police that Masih had said Christianity was right, and Masih had suggested that Akram read Salman Rushdie's Satanic Verses.[4][5] The same day that Masih was arrested, Muslim villagers forced the entire Christian population of Masih's village (fourteen families) to leave the village. Masih's family had applied under a government program that gave housing plots to landless people. Local landlords resented Masih's application because the landlords had been able to oblige landless Christians to work in the fields in exchange for a place to live. Masih's application gave him a way out of his subservience to the landlords.[6] Upon Masih's arrest, the authorities gave Masih's plot to Akram.[4] Akram shot and injured Masih in the halls of the Session Court at Sahiwal on 6 November 1997. Four assailants also attacked Masih in jail. The authorities took no action against Akram or against the other assailants.[4] On 20 April 1998, Judge Abdul Khan sentenced Masih to death and levied a fine of 100,000 rupees. Two judges of the Lahore High Court heard Masih's appeal on 24 July 2001. Shortly thereafter, the judges affirmed the judgment of the trial court.[4] On 16 August 2002, the Supreme Court of Pakistan set aside the judgment of the lower courts. The Supreme Court noted Akram's acquisition of Masih's property and concluded the case had been fabricated for personal gain. The court also noted other breaches in the law of due process.[7][8]
1997  | On 6 and 7 February, a mob of approximately 30,000 Muslims burned and looted the villages of Shanti Nagar and Tibba near Khanewal in Punjab.[9][10] The riot began after loudspeakers accused the local Christian population of ripping pages from the Quran and scribbling insults against Mohammed in the margins.[11] The attacks saw the destruction of at least 785 homes as well four churches and forced over 2,500 Christians to flee.[12] In 2013, villagers in Shanti Nagar erected the then largest cross in Pakistan in memory of the attack.[13]
2000  | In October, Pakistani authorities charged Younus Shaikh, a physician, with blasphemy on account of remarks that students claimed he made during a lecture. The students alleged that, inter alia, Shaikh had said Muhammad's parents were non-Muslims because they died before Islam existed. A judge ordered that Shaikh pay a fine of 100,000 rupees, and that he be hanged.[14] On 20 November 2003, a court retried the matter and acquitted Shaikh, who fled Pakistan for Switzerland soon thereafter.[15]
2005  | On 11 August, Judge Arshad Noor Khan of the Anti-Terrorist Court found a different Younus Shaikh guilty of "defiling a copy of the Quran, outraging religious feelings and propagating religious hatred among society."[16] Shaikh was arrested after openly distributing copies of his book, Shaitan Maulvi (Satanic Cleric), in which he wrote that stoning to death was not mentioned in the Quran as a punishment for adultery. The book also said that four historical imams were Jews.[17] The judge imposed upon Shaikh a fine of 100,000 rupees, and sentenced him to spend his life in jail.[18]
2005  | On 23 December, five men from the Mehdi Foundation International were arrested in Lahore for putting up posters of their leader, Riaz Gohar Shahi, which claimed that he was the Mahdi. They were all later sentenced to five years each by the Anti-Terrorism Court for violation of penal code § 295-A.[19]
2006  | On 3 June, following protests by the country's Christian minority, Pakistan banned the film The Da Vinci Code for theorizing about the descendants of Jesus Christ. Although the book had been available for some time, culture minister Ghulam Jamal said that "Islam teaches us to respect all the prophets of God Almighty and degradation of any prophet is tantamount to defamation of the rest."[20][21]
2009  | On 22 January, Hector Aleem, a Christian peace activist, was arrested in Islamabad after having allegedly sent a member of Sunni Tehreek a blasphemous text message.[22]
2009  | In June, Asia Bibi, a Catholic woman from Punjab, was arrested and prosecuted under penal code 295C after supposedly making derogatory remarks about the Islamic prophet Muhammad.[23] Bibi was convicted and sentenced to death in November 2010, as well as fined the equivalent of $1,100.[24] On 8 October 2018, following several unsuccessful appeals, Bibi's death sentence was overturned by Pakistan's Supreme Court.[25] However, she was prevented from leaving the country by order of the Government of Pakistan until 8 May 2019 when she was reunited with her family in Canada.[26]
2009  | In July, eight Pakistani Christians were killed in the Punjabi town of Gojra after members of the then-banned Sipah-e-Sahaba attacked and burned their homes. Christians in the neighboring village of Korrian had allegedly torn up pages of the Quran during a wedding, but the Federal Minister for Minorities Shahbaz Bhatti said this was untrue and that the police had ignored his instructions to protect Gojra's Christian community.[27][28][29]
2010  | In July, a trader in Faisalabad complained that one of his employees had been handed a pamphlet which contained disrespectful remarks about Muhammad. According to the police, the pamphlet appeared to have the signatures and addresses of Pastor Rashid Emmanuel and his brother Sajid, who were Christians. The brothers were shot and killed while being escorted by the police from a district court. Both had denied the charge of blasphemy.[30] Following their murder, rumors spread that angry Christians were burning Muslim homes, prompting hundreds of Muslim men to gather in Christian neighborhoods. They then clashed with nearby Christians before the police dispersed the crowd.[31] An anti-terrorism court later sentenced Maqsood Ahmed, a Muslim man, to death for the double-murder of Rashid and Sajid.[32]
2011  | On 4 January, Salman Taseer, govern of Punjab, was shot dead in Islamabad by his bodyguard Mumtaz Qadri for his opposition to Pakistan's blasphemy laws and his support for Asia Bibi.[33] Qadri was sentenced to death on 1 October by an anti-terrorism court and, after several failed appeals, was executed on 29 February 2016.[34]

Masih and her family left Pakistan shortly thereafter to settle in Canada.[39]
2013  | On 18 June, Shafqat Emmanuel and Shagufta Kausar, a Christian couple from Gojra, were arrested for allegedly sending a mosque cleric a text message that insulted Muhammad.[40] The couple, who are illiterate, claimed that the offending text had been sent from a lost mobile phone and that the case was motivated by a personal grudge.[41] On 4 April 2014, they were both convicted and sentenced to death.[42][43] On 3 June 2021, the Lahore High Court overturned the convictions due to lack of evidence and the couple were shortly thereafter granted asylum in an unspecified European country.[44][45]
2014  | In January, Muhammad Asghar, a 70-year-old British man from Edinburgh, was convicted of blasphemy and sentenced to death by a court in Rawalpindi.

He spent a month in a psychiatric hospital before leaving for Pakistan.[47] In September 2014, Asghar was shot in the back by a prison guard for reasons unknown.[48]
2014  | On 4 November, a Christian couple, Shahzad Masih and his pregnant wife Shama Masih, were beaten and burned to death in a brick kiln by a mob in Kot Radha Kishan after being accused of burning the Quran. Shama Masih had burned several possessions of a recently deceased relative outside her home a few days before, including various talismans and charms. Allegations then spread to neighboring villages that Masih had destroyed a Quran, prompting local clerics to issue a fatwa against the couple. On the day of the attack, a crowd of about 500 people stormed the kiln where they worked, took them from their room, and killed them.[49][50] On 23 November 2016, an antiterrorism court sentenced five people to death in connection with the murders; however, two of them were later acquitted in 2019.[51][52]

He supposedly kept making these remarks until assistant sub-inspector Faraz Naveed went into Naqvi's cell early in the morning and killed him with an axe.[53][54][55] Naveed was arrested and given a double death sentence on 27 February 2016, pending an appeal in the Lahore High Court.[56]
