A Christian couple in Pakistan have been beaten to death by an angry crowd after being accused of desecrating a Koran, police say.
Their bodies were burned at the brick kiln where they worked in the town of Kot Radha Kishan in Punjab province.
Police identified the victims only as Shama and Shehzad, AFP reports.
Blasphemy is a highly sensitive issue and critics argue the laws are often misused to settle personal scores and that minorities are unfairly targeted.
"Yesterday an incident of desecration of the holy Koran took place in the area and today the mob first beat the couple and later set their bodies on fire at a brick kiln," local police station official Bin Yameen told the AFP news agency.
A security official told the BBC that local police had tried to save the couple, but they were outnumbered and attacked by the angry crowd.

In many countries, including many Muslim countries, there are many people groups who do not even have a written language. Amazingly, many of these Muslim countries are inviting Bible translators in, to help the local people create a written language, so they communicate. Written language and literacy are two building blocks to get the poorest of the poor out of their poverty. These leaders know they are ‘risking’ their satanic religion by allowing written Bibles but think the ‘risk’ is worth it. The good news is, literacy is expanding AND so are the number of new Believers!
Ones with the beards?
This confirms that Allah is really “great”!
Jdg 6:30
“Then the men of the city said unto Joash, Bring out thy son, that he may die: because he hath cast down the altar of Baal, and because he hath cut down the grove that was by it.
Jdg 6:31
And Joash said unto all that stood against him, Will ye plead for Baal? will ye save him? he that will plead for him, let him be put to death whilst it is yet morning: if he be a god, LET HIM PLEAD FOR HIMSELF, because one hath cast down his altar.”
Obviously the moon god of the moslems is so impotent he has to use the arm of sinful man to keep people in fear of himself. LET ALLAH PLEAD FOR HIMSELF because one has besmirched his name!
