(ISLAMABAD, Pakistan) - On Friday evening, when I reached in AFP Karachi office directly from the airport, I observed some 600 extremists had attacked the St. Francis Church, old Goli mar.
Earlier the house of the accused Ryan Brain Patris (boy) was ransacked and furniture was set on fire in a violent protest, this time it was not in a slum but in Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC), Karachi.
Ryan Brain, a 15-year old Christian boy, has been accused of sending text messages containing ‘blasphemous’ content to his Muslim friends. The numbers written in FIR are 0346-278 1298 (sender) and 0302 2222 544 (receiver)
The incident took place in the staff colony of the Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) located at the junction of University Road and Abu al Hasan Ispahani Road, Karachi.
Police said that the boy was accused by the residents that he had sent text messages containing blasphemous content to his Muslim friends.
As the SMS reportedly circulated among the residents of the colony comprising workers and officers, they eventually attacked the residential quarter where Ryan Brain, 15, and his mother, Rubina Bryan,live. That happened on Wednesday, police said. Ms Bryan worked as a superintendent at the SSGC, they added.
