Two Christians gunned down by armed Muslims outside Church in Pakistan

(March 24, 2011) Two Christians were gunned down Monday evening and two others are in serious condition after young Muslims attacked them outside a church in Hyderabad, in Pakistan. Christians living in Camp Hurr, in Hyderabad, in Sindh, were celebrating the 30th anniversary of the founding of their church and the Salvation Army when a group of young Muslims gathered outside the church, playing loud music and annoying the Christian women who entered the church. About four Christians came out of a church to ask the Muslims to respect the people and place. An argument ensued. Shortly afterwards the Muslims returned armed with guns. Witnesses say that Muslims opened fire immediately, killing two instantly and seriously injuring two other Christians, who were transported to hospital in Karachi. The negligent attitude of the Police has upset the Christians. They say: "The police acted as if it was not important. They didn’t file the report until late at night when we blocked the main road of Hyderabad, with the two dead bodies for several hours". So far police have not arrested any of the accused, who are still at large. They instead arrested some teenagers who are not involved in the crime.
