While majority of the victims were Muslims, Western media portrayed it was an attack on Christians celebrating Easter
KARACHI: I would like to draw the attention of people to the fact that the majority of the victims of the Lahore bomb blast were Muslims. The Western media is portraying that it was an attack on Christians celebrating Easter. Admittedly, the attack happened on a Sunday, so people from all backgrounds were there to enjoy the holiday. I urge people around the globe to be wary of reports coming through the media and elsewhere, before drawing conclusions.
