A man has been killed and 11 others have been injured in clashes between Muslim and Christian residents of the Shadbagh area for the past two days. Yousaf Masih alias Billa and his sons, Pitras Masih and Marcus Masih, allegedly harassed women on their way to a funeral of Essa Nagri (a Christian dominated area) resident Haseeb Khan's sister-in-law on Sunday. Later, Haseeb and his relatives asked Billa whether he was involved in the incident and got into a fight with him. Billa and his sons shot Haseeb dead and tried escaping but police managed to arrest them. A case was registered against Billa on the complaint of Haseeb's brother, Abdul Waheed. Haseeb's body was sent for autopsy before his sister-in-law's funeral.The issue was revived when Billa's friend, Kalo Masih, and two accomplices got angry at Billa's arrest and shot at 12-year-old Suleman and Zainab. Suleman is in serious condition. Muslims and Christians came out in force and threw stones and exchanged gunfire with each other. Senior police officials reached the scene and settled the matter. Usman, Baber, Imran and Tanveer were among the 11 people injured by stones and were taken to Mayo Hospital. Lahore Superintendent of Police Dr Usman told Daily Times that the matter got out of control during the stone throwing, but things settled down once police got to the scene. He said Kalo Masih and his accomplices were arrested while the injured were being treated. The SP also said Christian councillors of the area were helping resolve the matter and they (the councillors) had said that the Christians started the fight. He said police was deputed in the area and around Churches to avoid other such incidents.
