Pakistani man accused of insulting Islam shot dead in courtroom

It was not immediately clear how the assailant, identified as Khalid Khan, managed to get into the court amid tight security.

The attacker was subsequently arrested.

The man on trial, Tahir Shamim Ahmad, had claimed he was Islam's prophet and was arrested two years ago on blasphemy charges, according to Azmat Khan, the police officer. Ahmad died before he could be transported to hospital.

A Punjab governor was killed by his own guard in 2011 after he defended a Christian woman, Asia Bibi, who was accused of blasphemy. She was acquitted after spending eight years on death row in a case that drew international media attention. Faced with death threats from Islamic extremists upon her release, she flew to Canada to join her daughters last year.

We’uns down here in Dixie used to know how very well. It really doesn’t seem like much of a loss here. Amusing, really.
