Hindu temple vandalised in Pakistan's Karachi over blasphemy charge
A Hindu temple was vandalised by a mob in Pakistan's Karachi after blasphemy allegations were made against a boy from the Hindu community.
The incident took place on Sunday night in Salaar compound of Karachi's Lyari area. A huge mob emerged in the Hindu community colony and vandalised the Sheetal Temple in the Lee Market area, accusing the minority community of blasphemy.
During the vandalism, idols of Hindu gods were torn down and thrown out of the temple and the temple premises were also defaced.
The incident took place after certain individuals alleged that someone from the Hindu community wrote defamatory things about the Islamic faith on a dog. The allegations remain unproven at the moment.
According to reports, this is the third Hindu temple to be desecrated in Pakistan in a span of 20 days.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
