LAHORE, Pakistan A Pakistani counter-terrorism court has sentenced to death a man who allegedly committed blasphemy on Facebook, a government prosecutor said on Sunday the first time someone has been handed the death penalty for insulting the Prophet Mohammad on social media.
The conviction of Taimoor Raza, 30, follows a high-profile crackdown against blasphemy on social media by the government of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.
Blasphemy is a highly sensitive topic in Muslim-majority Pakistan, where insulting the Prophet Mohammad is a capital crime for which dozens are sitting on death row. Even mere accusations are enough to spark mass uproar and mob justice.
Shafiq Qureshi, public prosecutor in Bahawalpur, about 300 miles south of provincial capital Lahore, said Raza was convicted for allegedly making derogatory remarks against Prophet Mohammad, his wives and companions.

Sounds like a paradise :)
Sick pups.
but but but, back in the UK and here the far left extremists, lunatics, homosexuals, and liberals, are all marching against those who oppose sharia. MMMM Guess the far left fanatics do not like civil right, and like sharia.
What our progressives who would accommodate Muslims by imposing Sharia here don’t tell us is that we would be under the heel of sharia even as Christians. (Or atheists, agnostics, Buddhists, etc. )
Democrats dream of once again going around in lynch mobs to round up and get rid of unbelievers.
They seem ok with genitalia mutilation on babies, little girls and teens so no joy in sex, so I'm thinking badmouthing on Facebook deserves capitol punishment.
Wow! That’s surprising. ...not that it happened, that the MSM reported it.
islam is a totalitarian death cult founded by a child rapist.
We should remember that FAKE white guilt is a big problem.
Kids HATE their parents for giving them a great upbringing because “others” suffered.
Hell, I know a woman who told her kids their grandfathers were war criminals because they fought in WWII and we used the Atom bomb.
You read that right.
Of course it was a boss (female white) in Manhattan.
Sure some of my posts are out there. How could they NOT BE after working in Manhattan 22 years!!! :)
Do the far left extremists, lunatics, homosexuals and liberals not comprehend that they will be among the FIRST to be executed under Sharia Law?!
Naw we were told by HomoFa that the protests this weedkend in America were strictly about hysteria.
Just when you would think that Pakistan as a nation would try to stop being 12th century Islamic barbarians, they show that they still are.
Alex, I’ll take India for $1,000.
Portland protesters don’t give a damn about sanity, real justice, or the dangers of drugs. Let them kill themselves. Less carbon footprints and vomit piles to deal with.
Greatly disappointed in the Pakistani govt and tribal Neanderthals.
The Paks I know in the US are honest, hardworking people (with the possible exception of Little Debbie’s Cookies Wasserman’s IT groups of suspected crooks and spies).
Parts of Pakistan, like those in Afghanistan and other surrounding mountainous countries (all Islamic) are living examples of what the 12th Century was like. I would just a readily nuke the Pustan/Baluchi/Taliban areas as readily as I would kill a Zika mosquito.
However, since that isn’t going to happen, I would hope that the Pakistani government would go in and clean out these areas once and for all. Use whatever weapons they need to get the job done. Then kill a bunch of Islamic extremist clerics just to get the point across that “tolerance” is a real living concept and those who don’t practice it will be killed.
What the f*ck am I smoking? That part of the world should be obliterated ASAP because I see no hope for any real religious/cultural or military reform in this century and I’m too damned old to wait to see if it happens in the next.
Nuke’em and get on with life.
All they know is that they are supposed to hate Trump
