Sialkot shame

The scenes from the public lynching in Sialkot are so brutal that I don’t have words to express my horror.

ISLAMABAD:
The scenes from the public lynching in Sialkot are so brutal that I don’t have words to express my horror. What is worse is that there is a person filming the whole thing. Also, there are at least a hundred or so people watching and doing nothing. It’s not just the police that let this happen. I would say the people who stood by and did nothing are also all animals and share the blame — including the person who caught this on film.

I wonder that when something like this happens, what happens to all our religious teachings and principles? I can now understand the state this country is in and it's going to get worse.
