Christian Man dies of a heart attack following serious threats and harassment from a group of militant Muslims who broke into his home
By Xavier Patras William Special to ASSIST News Service
LAHORE, PAKISTAN (ANS) -- Mukhityar Masih, a 37-year-old Christian man, died of a heart attack following serious threats and harassment he suffered from a group of militant Muslims who broke into his home in Youhanabad, Lahore on March 7, 2010.
He died after the believer had bought some land from a Muslim landlord and a real estate dealer. A contract was signed in which Mr. Masih agreed that he would pay installments for 10 years then he would get the register and other documents for the land.
ANS has learned Mukhityar had kept on paying the installments for 10 years and then demanded that the documents should be handed over to him, but the man allegedly kept on delaying the matters for two years.
Mukhityar finally filed a complaint at the Youhanabad Police Station, and the Senior House Officer accepted the complaint and registered a FIR (First Information report) against the man. The police went to arrest him but could not find him.
It was alleged that on Sunday, the Muslim man took 20 armed gunmen to Masih’s house and threatened to him at gunpoint to take back the complaint or he and his family would have to face dire consequences. Mukhityar fainted and fell on the floor, and he suffered a heart attack and died.
Mukhityar’s family took the dead body and put it on local Ferozepur Road and protested for the arrest of the man and his allies.
Christian organizations have also protested with the grieving family and demanded justice for the effected family.
Incidents of injustice with the Christians are increasing in the Punjab Province of Pakistan.

Well, it’s not like Christians don’t do the same thing, you know? Conservative Christians are no different, if not worse than Muslims. (/libspeak)
Whew. The “harassment” and persecution of Christians appears to be on the uptick all over the world - particularly but not exclusively coming from Muslims.
Only thing I can say is these Muslims who were following their father the devil succeeded only in sending this man exactly where he would long to be - which is with His Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
So they intended their attack for this man’s ill - but God who always works in all things for good on behalf of His beloveds - just took him right then to be with Him in heaven leaving the attackers with nothing but empty vengeance which does nothing but destroy their hearts and souls.
(unless the Christians left behind forgive these thugs and by their behavior win some of these Muslims to Jesus Christ).
Whew.
