| Case for killing Imam |
| 2006-06-17 |
 LAHORE: Bahawalpur police have registered a case against three men for the murder of the imam of a mosque accused of burning pages of the Holy Quran. "Two cases have been registered. One against the alleged blasphemer and the other against the three attackers," the Hasilpur deputy superintendent of police said. Hafiz Qamar Javaid was attacked by a mob following rumours that he had burned pages of the Holy Quran. A schoolteacher also injured in the attack is in critical condition. |

| #6 Burning the Koran by the proverbial drain, was he? The ususal frame-up. Some other Imam wants to take over the mosque and Hafiz, poor boy, is just not "pious" (read: violent) enough for that mosque. Charges of burning a Koran demonstrate his lack of "islamic value" and he's seen as a traitor. It's more fun than bumping him off themselves - watch the crowd they aroused rip him to pieces. Islam, the religion of pieces. |

| #3 I heard that Muqtada Al-Sadr uses pages of the Holy Quran to make paper hats when he runs out of tinfoil . . . . |
