Pakistani police finally brought dozens of "missing" Christians to a court in the southern city of Karachi on May 16 after denying their arrests for weeks.
The families of the "disappeared" Christians had complained that the security forces picked up more than two dozens of Christians — mainly youths — without any charges from the Gulshan-e-Iqbal area and some other parts of the port city.
Christians in Pakistan face widespread legal and cultural discrimination and are often targeted by Islamists and fundamentalist mobs. The latest arrests in Karachi have further increased the sense of insecurity among the minority community.
..The Christian community also accused security officials of harassing them. "When we asked why they are taking away our boys, they started threatening us. They entered our house without any notice," said Khalida Bibi, whose relatives are among the arrested group of Christians.
...The police mistreatment of Christians is not a new occurrence in Pakistan. In February, Sajid Masih, a 24-year-old blasphemy suspect, leapt from the fourth floor of the Federal Investigation Agency's (FIA) Punjab headquarters in Lahore and severely injured himself. In a video statement, Sajid alleged that he jumped because the FIA officials tortured him and ordered him to "sexually assault" Patras Masih, his cousin and the main accused in an online blasphemy case.
"They asked me to abuse myself, but I refused to do so. Later, they asked me to sexually assault my cousin, but I remained silent and jumped from the building," he said.
in 2014, a Christian couple was beaten to death for allegedly desecrating a copy of the Quran. Their bodies were subsequently burned in a brick kiln.
In September last year, a Christian man in Pakistan was sentenced to death for sharing "blasphemous" material on WhatsApp.

Seems that Pakastan has their own version of our own NDAA.
This CAN happen here...
No. Because we are armed.
“The latest arrests in Karachi have further increased the sense of insecurity among the minority community.”
I wouldn’t think that was possible.
L
Maybe you are not aware of how it would be carried out.
Good thing that I’m not POTUS.
I start dropping nukes on them until they stopped their murdering ways.
They have had 1400 years to get this show on the road. It will not stop quickly.
I would take a different approach.
I’d carpet bomb them with scripture and audio recordings in their language of the gospel.
Everytime they abused Christians, I’d send so much scripture into their land, they wouldn’t know what to do.
Or rather the big difference between this country and other countries.
