DEATH OF SHEHZAD MASIH AND SHAMA BIBI

Motion Text

That this House notices with alarming concern that two years after the beating, torture and burning alive in a furnace of the Christian couple, Shehzad Masih and Shama Bibi, by a fanatical mob, for their alleged blasphemy after they were unable to repay a loan to their employer, the government of Pakistan has failed to bring to justice any culprits, as with similar attacks previously; and urges the government of Pakistan to take immediate action and to ensure that its religious minorities are protected in accordance with international standards.
