Shahbaz predicted his own death four months ago for simply trying to reform current barbaric blasphemy laws despite half-hourly death threats from Islamist militant fuckheads.
Pakistan seems to be in desperate need of an international kick up the arse.
Typical Islamic barbarism.

But Pakistan is a federal parliamentary republic, so I'm still not quite getting the remark about democracy or what it has to do with this assassination.

Allah is apparently so pitiful and weak that he requires anti-blasphemy laws for protection.
