...aka The Great Khan , who ain't the sharpest bulb on the national tree...
took notice of the incident and sought a report from the provincial police on action taken against the perpetrators.
With the latest arrests, the number of primary suspects in jug has risen to 21, while a total of 102 have been detained so far and are being interrogated for their suspected involvement in the crime, a spokesperson for Punjab police said in a statement.
In an incident that brings back the memories of Sri Lankan national Priyantha Kumara's lynching in December, the middle-aged man was stoned to death by a mob over alleged desecration of the Holy Koran in Khanewal district's Tulamba on Saturday.
The victim reportedly claimed innocence but the villagers first tied him up to a tree and then hit him with bricks until he died.
The six primary suspects arrested on Monday "could be seen [in a video] provoking the mob as well as torturing the victim with bricks and sticks", the police spokesperson said.
He said the prime suspects had been charged with sections of terrorism and heinous crimes in the first information report (FIR).
"The identification and arrest of more suspects are underway with the help of available footage and evidence," the spokesperson added.
Police teams conducted raids throughout the previous night while a secret operation was also underway, according to the statement.
