Reportedly no one from Church and school was injured. The police is confident to track down the perpetrators from the Church CCTV's footage which they have obtained from the Church and the deployed police constables bravely resisted the attackers and those attackers fled away from the crime scene.
"It is unbelievable how the militants in broad daylight targeted and fired at the Church and fled away as they did nothing in the metropolitan city which show that the attackers are from local militants groups",said Gill.
We urge Government to take strong measures to eliminate the militants wings from society and to take legal action without discrimination of faith and religions.
We demand justice in the twin suicide attacks at Youhanabad Churches and behind the crime scene elements should be exposed. This incident once again created a fear of insecurity amongst Christian community and they believe that the matter is being dealt with discrimination.
