Sardar Mushtaq Gill Condemns Mob Attack in Narang Mandi, Calls for Repeal of Blasphemy Laws and International Action to Protect Pakistan’s Christians

Blasphemy-related accusations, mob violence, and the forced displacement of Christian families in Pakistan raise urgent concerns over religious freedom, minority protection, and the rule of law.

NARANG MANDI, PAKISTAN — October 10, 2026 — Sardar Mushtaq Gill, founder of LEAD Ministries, has strongly condemned the reported mob attack on October 9, 2026, in Gharyal Kalan, Narang Mandi, Punjab Province, Pakistan. According to the information provided, hundreds of people gathered following Friday prayers at a local mosque and attacked and set fire to the house and clinic of Kamran Masih Gill, who had been arrested by police on October 8 in connection with a blasphemy-related allegation.

Sardar Mushtaq Gill questioned why the mob resorted to violence when the accused was already in police custody and the matter was subject to legal proceedings. He emphasized that allegations must be investigated through lawful procedures and cannot justify attacks on property, threats to public safety, or violence against innocent people.


The incident has renewed concerns about the vulnerability of Pakistan’s Christian minority, particularly when allegations against one individual expose family members and entire communities to threats, intimidation, and displacement.

Gill has renewed his longstanding call for the repeal of Sections 295-C and 295-B of Pakistan’s Penal Code, arguing that blasphemy laws and their potential misuse raise serious concerns about religious freedom, equal citizenship, and the safety of religious minorities. He has also called for international monitoring, legal reform, and stronger protection for Christians in Pakistan.

Mob Attack Despite Police Arrest Raises Serious Questions

The reported arson in Gharyal Kalan raises urgent questions about preventive policing and the authorities’ ability to protect vulnerable communities. Gill stressed that police custody and ongoing legal proceedings should prevent individuals from taking the law into their own hands.

He called for an impartial investigation, accountability for those responsible for violence and destruction, and appropriate protection and assistance for affected residents.

Gill warned that blasphemy-related allegations can expose entire Christian communities to danger, even when only one person is accused. Families and neighbors who have no involvement in an allegation may face threats, attacks on homes and businesses, intimidation, and forced displacement because of their religious identity.

He emphasized that an allegation against one individual must never justify collective punishment. Every citizen deserves equal protection under the law, and no family should be forced to abandon its home because of its faith.

Karachi: Christian Families Trapped Amid Quran Desecration Allegation

According to reports, on July 9, 2026, a protest erupted in Qazafi Colony, Baldia Town, Karachi, after an envelope containing a burnt page of the Quran was allegedly sent to Waleed General Store. The envelope reportedly also contained photographs of 40-year-old Catholic Azeem Javaid and his mother, along with an image of her national identity card.

Several hundred Muslims, including religious party activists, reportedly gathered near Javaid’s street, leaving approximately 10 to 15 Christian families trapped inside their homes. Protesters allegedly threw stones at police vehicles, prompting the Sindh government to deploy additional police and paramilitary Rangers.

The incident raised serious concerns about the safety of Christian residents amid unverified religious allegations. The identity and motives of those responsible for sending the envelope require investigation, and authorities must ensure that innocent families are not targeted.

Gujranwala: Christian Families Flee Following Allegations Against US-Based Pastor

According to reports, in early July 2026, more than two dozen Christian families fled Jhulan village in Gujranwala Division, Punjab Province, amid fears of violence following allegations against US-based Pastor Sajeel Robin over social media videos reportedly considered offensive to Islam and the Prophet Muhammad.

Mosque loudspeaker announcements allegedly intensified tensions on July 3, prompting police from Kot Ladha station to advise Christian residents to leave temporarily for their safety. Many families reportedly fled with only the belongings they could carry.

Reports stated that the pastor’s father, Robin Masih, and maternal uncle, Shamaun Masih, were taken into protective custody, while his brother, Nabeel Robin, reportedly went into hiding to avoid arrest.

Local police and some Muslim residents reportedly helped defuse tensions through negotiations with clerics, preventing further escalation.

The incident illustrates how allegations against a person living abroad can place relatives and entire communities at risk, forcing innocent families to leave their homes out of fear. It also underscores the importance of preventive policing, community cooperation, and timely protection for threatened residents.

July–October 2026: Continuing Blasphemy Allegations and Fears of Mob Violence Against Christians

Between July and October 2026, reports concerning Pakistan’s Christian minority have continued to raise concerns about blasphemy-related accusations, arrests, threats, public protests, and the risk of mob violence.

The incidents in Karachi and Jhulan illustrate how allegations involving religious sensitivities can endanger entire communities. In Karachi, Christian families were reportedly trapped inside their homes as a crowd gathered following an alleged act of Quran desecration. In Jhulan, more than two dozen families reportedly fled amid fears of attacks following allegations against a pastor living in the United States.

Reports during this period also described blasphemy-related arrests involving Christians in Punjab, raising concerns about due process, legal vulnerability, and the wider consequences for accused individuals and their families. Allegations must be distinguished from proven offences, and every accused person is entitled to a fair legal process.

Although not every blasphemy allegation leads to mob violence, the threat of public hostility can create fear even before an attack occurs. Families may fear for their lives, homes, businesses, and livelihoods despite having no involvement in the original allegation.

The reported October 9 attack in Gharyal Kalan brings these concerns into sharp focus. According to the information provided, a mob attacked and set fire to Kamran Masih Gill’s house and clinic despite his reported arrest the previous day. More than 35 Christian families were reportedly forced to flee amid the resulting insecurity.

Sardar Mushtaq Gill argues that these developments demonstrate the need for sustained international monitoring, effective police protection, accountability for perpetrators of mob violence, and meaningful legal reform. Christians should not have to live in fear that an accusation against one person could threaten the safety of an entire community.

A Pattern of Fear, Displacement, and Insecurity

Taken together, the reported incidents in Narang Mandi, Karachi, and Jhulan illustrate recurring concerns about the consequences of blasphemy-related allegations for Pakistan’s Christian minority.

In Narang Mandi, the reported attack occurred despite the accused having been arrested, and more than 35 Christian families were reportedly forced to flee. In Karachi, approximately 10 to 15 Christian families were reportedly trapped inside their homes as a crowd gathered nearby. In Jhulan, more than two dozen Christian families reportedly fled amid fears of violence linked to allegations against a pastor living abroad.

These incidents raise questions about the effectiveness of existing protection mechanisms and the ability of authorities to prevent collective retaliation.

The consequences extend beyond immediate physical danger. Fear of violence can disrupt education, employment, religious practice, economic stability, and the ability of families to remain safely in their homes. Even the threat of an attack can force people to abandon their possessions and livelihoods.

Gill argues that Pakistani authorities must move beyond responding after violence occurs and establish effective safeguards against threats, mob violence, forced displacement, and collective punishment. He also recognizes the importance of timely intervention by police and community members, as reportedly occurred in Jhulan.

Sardar Mushtaq Gill Renews Call for Repeal of Sections 295-C and 295-B

Sardar Mushtaq Gill has renewed his longstanding demand for the repeal of Sections 295-C and 295-B of Pakistan’s Penal Code.

Section 295-C addresses derogatory remarks regarding the Prophet Muhammad and prescribes the death penalty for the offence under that provision. Section 295-B concerns the desecration of the Quran and prescribes life imprisonment under the provision.

Gill argues that these laws and their potential misuse create serious risks for religious minorities when allegations are exploited, accused individuals are treated as guilty before due process, or accusations provoke extrajudicial violence against entire communities.

He maintains that the possibility of severe legal consequences, combined with the threat of mob retaliation, contributes to fear and insecurity among Christians.

Through LEAD Ministries, Gill has advocated religious freedom, equal citizenship, and the protection of vulnerable communities. He argues that laws and religious accusations must not be used to justify discrimination, intimidation, or violence against Christians or any other religious minority.

His call for repeal is rooted in concerns about the wider consequences of these provisions, particularly when accusations provoke collective hostility. He has urged Pakistani lawmakers and the government to pursue meaningful legal reform, establish safeguards against malicious accusations, and strengthen protection for people threatened with religiously motivated violence.

LEAD Ministries maintains that no law, accusation, or interpretation of religious principles should be used to justify attacks on innocent people or the collective punishment of an entire community.

Appeal to International Observers and Human Rights Organizations

Sardar Mushtaq Gill has urged the United Nations, international human rights organizations, religious freedom monitoring bodies, foreign diplomatic missions, and other international observers to give sustained attention to the safety and protection of Pakistan’s Christian minority.

He has called for independent monitoring of blasphemy-related incidents, impartial investigations into attacks on Christian communities, accountability for perpetrators, and effective protection for families threatened with violence or displacement.

Gill emphasized that international engagement should extend beyond statements issued after incidents. It should include continued dialogue with Pakistani authorities, scrutiny of protection mechanisms, support for affected families, and advocacy for legal reforms consistent with religious freedom and equal protection under the law.

He urged international observers to examine the reported incidents in Narang Mandi, Karachi, and Jhulan alongside other documented cases to assess the risks facing Christians and identify practical measures to prevent further violence.

Particular attention should be given to displaced families, including their immediate safety, access to shelter, recovery of property, and ability to return home without fear of renewed attacks.

Gill stressed that protection must be preventive rather than merely reactive. Authorities should respond when credible threats emerge rather than waiting until homes are burned, families are displaced, or violence has already occurred.

No Christian Family Should Have to Live in Fear

Sardar Mushtaq Gill’s condemnation of the reported attack in Gharyal Kalan, Narang Mandi, reflects LEAD Ministries’ longstanding concerns about blasphemy-related violence and the insecurity experienced by Pakistan’s Christian minority.

The reported incidents in Karachi and Jhulan further illustrate the consequences religious accusations can have for innocent people: families trapped inside their homes, residents fleeing with only essential belongings, and communities living with uncertainty about their safety and future.

The wider concerns reported between July and October 2026 reinforce the need for comprehensive protection, accountability for mob violence, and meaningful legal reform.

Gill has renewed his call for the repeal of Sections 295-C and 295-B and urged international observers to monitor the treatment of Christians in Pakistan, press for effective safeguards, and support measures that protect the rights and dignity of every citizen.

For LEAD Ministries, the issue extends beyond individual allegations or isolated incidents. It concerns whether every Christian family can live safely in its home without fear that an accusation against one person could expose an entire community to violence or forced displacement.

The central message is clear: An allegation against one individual must never become a justification for endangering an entire community. No family should be forced to flee its home because of its religious identity, and no Christian should have to live in constant fear that an accusation against another person could put their life, home, or future at risk.

Justice must be individual, and protection under the law must be equal for all. The law must safeguard the religious sentiments, beliefs, and freedoms of every person, ensuring that allegations of blasphemy or disputes over interpretations of religious texts are addressed through fair, impartial, and lawful procedures—not used to justify discrimination, intimidation, mob violence, or persecution under particular interpretations or applications of Islamic Sharia. No individual or community should be denied justice because of their religious identity or beliefs.

Religious freedom must be upheld, human dignity respected, and the rule of law applied equally to everyone without discrimination.

Christian Man Arrested over Alleged Blasphemous Social Media Post as Mob Attempts to Torch His Home and Clinic, Leaving Entire Christian Village in Fear

LEAD Ministries Calls for Prayers for His Family’s Protection and the Safety of the Christian Community

SHEIKHUPURA, PUNJAB, PAKISTAN — Fear and uncertainty have gripped the Christian community in Gharyal Kalan village, near Narang Mandi in Sheikhupura District, following the arrest of a Christian man accused of sharing allegedly blasphemous content on social media and a reported mob attack targeting his home and medical clinic.

According to local sources, Kamran Masih, a  married Christian man who operates a medical clinic in Gharyal Kalan village, was arrested by police at Narang Mandi Police Station on October 8, 2026. His arrest reportedly followed allegations that he had shared a Facebook post containing allegedly blasphemous content originally published by a Hindu individual. Local sources stated that the post had reportedly been shared and deleted days before his arrest.

On Friday, October 9, following Jumu’ah prayers, an enraged mob reportedly attacked Masih’s home and clinic and attempted to set both properties on fire. Police and other law enforcement personnel reportedly intervened in time to prevent further escalation and protect the properties. According to local sources, the homes of other Christian families in the village also remained safe.

A substantial police presence has reportedly been deployed in the area to maintain order and protect residents amid fears of further violence and possible retaliation.

Family Lives in Fear Amid Uncertainty

While Kamran Masih about 40 years old reportedly remains in police custody, his family—including his wife, 3 children, mother, and three brothers—is reportedly experiencing considerable fear and emotional distress. The reported attack has heightened concerns about their safety and the possibility of further threats or intimidation.

The incident has also intensified anxiety throughout the village’s Christian community, with families concerned that they could become targets of retaliation. For Masih’s loved ones, the uncertainty surrounding his case and the reported attack on their home and livelihood have created an increasingly distressing situation.

The incident highlights the vulnerability of religious minorities when blasphemy allegations arise and the devastating consequences such accusations can have for individuals, families, and entire communities.

Separate FIRs Against Kamran Masih Gill and the Alleged Mob

Narang Mandi police registered FIR No. 1070/26 against Kamran Masih Gill over allegedly religiously offensive social media content under PPC Sections 295-A, 298, 298-A and 504, PECA Sections 11, 20 and 26-A, and other cited provisions. According to information received, the alleged content did not involve blasphemy against Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) or the Holy Quran; this requires independent verification.

A separate FIR, No. 1071/26, was registered against the alleged mob for attacking the Christian community, attacking Kamran Masih Gill’s house, and setting both his house and clinic on fire. The charges include PPC Sections 436, 427, 147, 149 and 153-A, and Sections 6 and 7 of the Anti-Terrorism Act.

Allegations must be investigated through due process, and no accusation justifies mob violence, arson or attacks on religious minorities.

LEAD Ministries Calls for Protection, Accountability, and Prayer

LEAD Ministries has received information about the incident from local sources and is appealing to Christians around the world to pray for Kamran Masih, his family, and the Christian community of Gharyal Kalan.

The ministry urges Pakistani authorities to protect Masih’s family and other vulnerable Christian residents, prevent further violence, investigate the reported mob attack, and ensure that all legal proceedings are conducted fairly and impartially.

An accusation is not proof of guilt, and no allegation can justify mob violence, arson, intimidation, or collective punishment. Every individual deserves dignity, protection, and due process under the law, regardless of religious belief or background.

Sardar Mushtaq Gill Warns of the Dangers of Online Religious Allegations

Sardar Mushtaq Gill, founder of LEAD Ministries, warned that social media activity involving sensitive religious subjects can expose individuals and their families to serious risks, particularly members of religious minority communities who are citizens of, or live or work in, some Muslim-majority countries where blasphemy laws carry severe penalties under interpretations of Sharia law.

Gill noted that even a single online post, comment, or shared publication can trigger allegations that may lead to prosecution, threats, intimidation, and, in some circumstances, mob violence. He cited the reported case of Anojan Sivarasa, a 24-year-old Sri Lankan migrant worker who is reportedly facing the death penalty in Saudi Arabia under Sharia law following a Facebook comment that he later deleted.

Gill also cited the case of Qaiser Ayub in Pakistan, whose appeal against a death sentence was reportedly dismissed by the Supreme Court on October 7, 2026. The case involved allegations that two brothers had uploaded blasphemous content concerning Islam and the Prophet Muhammad to social media. According to the reported account, the complainant, Muhammad Saeed, had filed a case against the two brothers. The co-accused, Amoon, was acquitted for lack of evidence, while Ayub’s death sentence was upheld after his appeal was dismissed. The case further illustrates the severe legal consequences that allegations involving religious content on social media can carry in Pakistan.

Gill warned that online content can be misunderstood, circulated without context, or reported to employers and authorities, potentially placing accused individuals and their loved ones in danger. For members of religious minority communities, the consequences of such allegations can extend beyond legal proceedings to threats, intimidation, and fear for their families’ safety.

He emphasized that personal caution cannot replace the responsibility of governments to protect vulnerable citizens and residents, prevent the misuse of laws, and ensure that allegations are investigated through fair and impartial legal procedures.

Gill stressed that no accusation should ever become a justification for extrajudicial punishment, violence against families, or collective retaliation against religious communities. Every individual deserves dignity, protection, and due process under the law, regardless of religious belief or background.

Religious Minorities at Risk: Blasphemy Allegations in Muslim-Majority Countries Raise Concerns over Death Penalties and Human Rights

The cases of Kamran Masih and Qaiser Ayub in Pakistan, and Anojan Sivarasa in Saudi Arabia, highlight the serious risks individuals may face when accused of blasphemy involving Islam or the Prophet Muhammad. In some Muslim-majority countries, such allegations can lead to severe legal penalties, including the death sentence under applicable laws and interpretations of Sharia, as well as threats, intimidation, and mob violence.

Sardar Mushtaq Gill warns that citizens, residents, and migrant workers from religious minority communities may face devastating consequences over social media posts or comments. While laws and enforcement practices vary between countries, every individual deserves protection, a fair trial, and due process.

No blasphemy accusation should ever justify mob violence, persecution, the denial of fundamental human rights, or the imposition of the death penalty or life imprisonment under laws based on interpretations of Sharia.

A Global Call to Prayer for Peace, Protection, and Justice

LEAD Ministries calls on Christians worldwide to pray for Kamran Masih, his wife, children, mother, and brothers, as well as the entire Christian community of Gharyal Kalan.

May God protect those living in fear, strengthen families facing uncertainty, restrain those who seek to incite violence, and guide authorities toward justice, fairness, and peace.

Religious freedom is a fundamental human right. No accusation should place an individual or an entire community beyond the protection of the law.

LEAD Ministries’ Advocacy for Religious Freedom and Human Rights

LEAD Ministries documents and raises international awareness of alleged violence and discrimination against religious minorities, bonded labor, forced conversions and marriages, and the misuse of blasphemy laws.

The organization advocates for religious freedom, human dignity, justice, and equality before the law. LEAD Ministries calls for the repeal of blasphemy laws and urges that laws concerning religious offences or hurt religious sentiments apply equally to all faiths, without discrimination or preferential treatment.

The ministry also calls upon international human rights organizations, United Nations human rights bodies, religious freedom advocates, and human rights defenders to advocate for the repeal of blasphemy laws prescribing the death penalty or life imprisonment, including in some Muslim-majority countries where such penalties are associated with interpretations of Sharia. It promotes legal reforms that protect freedom of religion or belief, freedom of expression, due process, and equal protection under the law.

LEAD Ministries remains committed to a world where people of all faiths and beliefs can live in freedom, dignity, equality, and peace, protected from persecution and discrimination.

Supreme Court Upholds Death Sentence of Christian Man in Blasphemy Case, Acquits Brother

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — The Supreme Court of Pakistan has upheld the death sentence of Christian man Qaiser Ayub in a long-running blasphemy case while acquitting his brother, Amoon Ayub, because of insufficient evidence linking him to the alleged online material.

The decision comes after more than a decade of legal proceedings, imprisonment and uncertainty for the two Christian brothers.

Amoon Ayub has now been acquitted, while Qaiser Ayub remains under a death sentence.

What Were the Allegations?

The case began in 2011 after allegations were made about blasphemous material published on a website carrying Qaiser Ayub's name and contact information.

According to a United Nations human-rights communication concerning the case, the brothers were accused of posting blasphemous material on the website. The website contained Qaiser Ayub's contact information as well as Amoon Ayub's telephone number and workplace address.

However, questions were raised about whether the brothers themselves had placed this information on the website. The brothers denied responsibility for the alleged material.

The trial court sentenced both brothers to death in December 2018. The Lahore High Court's Rawalpindi Bench upheld their convictions in June 2022.

The case later reached the Supreme Court.

On October 7, 2026, the Supreme Court rejected Qaiser Ayub's appeal and kept his death sentence in place. At the same time, the court acquitted Amoon Ayub because the evidence was not sufficient to connect him to the alleged material.

They Left Pakistan to Seek Safety

The brothers' difficulties began long before their final convictions.

After the allegations emerged, they reportedly left Pakistan because they feared for their safety. They travelled first to Singapore and later to Thailand.

Some Christian and advocacy organizations have reported that the brothers sought protection in Thailand and became involved in refugee or asylum procedures. However, all details of those proceedings are not independently available.

What is known is that the brothers eventually returned to Pakistan.

After returning, they were arrested and later spent years in prison.

Qaiser Ayub was arrested in November 2014, while Amoon Ayub was arrested later.

The United Nations communication concerning their case also raised concerns about their long detention and questions surrounding the evidence.

For people accused of blasphemy in Pakistan, leaving the country can be an attempt to find safety. The Ayub brothers tried to find protection outside Pakistan but eventually returned to the country where the case against them was pending.

One Brother Acquitted, One Still Facing Death

The Supreme Court's decision has created two very different outcomes.

Amoon Ayub has been acquitted.

Qaiser Ayub remains under a death sentence.

Both brothers spent years in prison.

Both faced the possibility of execution.

Now one brother has been cleared while the other remains at risk of execution.

Amoon Ayub's acquittal may give him his freedom, but it cannot return the years he spent in prison.

The lost time, separation from family, missed opportunities and hardship cannot simply be recovered.

This raises an important question about justice: What happens to the years that a person loses when he is imprisoned and later acquitted?

Who Will Stand for Qaiser Ayub?

The recent case of Sivarasa Anojan, a Sri Lankan national facing a death sentence in Saudi Arabia over a social-media post deemed insulting to the Prophet Muhammad, has received a strong response from the Sri Lankan authorities. Sri Lanka has sent a legal delegation to Saudi Arabia and is pursuing legal and diplomatic efforts for clemency.

This raises a question for international Christian leaders:

Who will stand for Qaiser Ayub?

Sardar Mushtaq Gill, Founder of LEAD Ministries, is calling on international Christian leaders to take practical steps to help protect Qaiser Ayub.

Who will send a legal or human-rights team to Pakistan?

Who will speak with the Pakistani authorities?

Who will monitor his case and support his family?

Who will work through lawful channels to seek protection for his life and ensure that all available legal remedies are considered?

The same concern applies to Christians who have fled Pakistan after facing blasphemy accusations and are now seeking asylum, refugee status or permanent protection in other countries.

Many such people continue to live with uncertainty about their future.

They need legal help, proper documentation and support from Christian organizations and international human-rights groups.

LEAD Ministries Calls for Action

LEAD Ministries is calling on Christian churches and organizations around the world to pay greater attention to Christians facing blasphemy accusations and persecution in Pakistan.

The organization is also calling for support for Christians who have been forced to leave Pakistan and are now seeking protection in other countries.

Sardar Mushtaq Gill said international Christian leadership should not only express concern but should also take practical action.

This can include sending legal representatives, monitoring court cases, supporting families, documenting cases and speaking with relevant authorities through lawful channels.

The goal should be to protect human life, support religious freedom and ensure that people facing serious accusations receive a fair legal process.

A Call to Christian-Majority Countries

Western Christian-majority countries should also open their doors to Christians who are seeking protection, with compassion and Christian love.

Christians can remember the example of Joseph, who took Mary and the infant Jesus and fled to Egypt to protect the life of the child from danger.

In the same spirit, Christian-majority countries and Christian leaders—particularly those who openly speak against the persecution of Christians—should not only speak about persecution but also embrace Christians who have been forced to flee.

They should provide a lifeline through practical support, protection and assistance so that vulnerable Christians can survive and rebuild their lives in safety.

Christians who flee their homes because of threats, accusations or persecution should not be forgotten once they cross a border.

They need a safe place to live, access to legal protection and the opportunity to rebuild their lives with dignity.

A Wider Concern for Christians in Pakistan

The Ayub brothers' case is part of wider concerns about the situation of Christians and other vulnerable religious minorities in Pakistan.

LEAD Ministries continues to document and raise awareness about alleged violence, discrimination, bonded labor, forced conversions and marriages, and alleged misuse of blasphemy laws.

The organization seeks to promote religious freedom, human dignity, justice and equal protection under the law.

For Christians who are forced to leave Pakistan because of threats or accusations, LEAD Ministries also calls for proper international protection and support.

The Ayub case shows the importance of acting early, providing legal assistance and ensuring that vulnerable people are not left alone when facing serious accusations.

The Time to Act Is Now

For Qaiser Ayub, the legal process has reached the Supreme Court, but his life remains at risk.

International Christian leaders now have an opportunity to speak, engage and support lawful efforts to protect him.

The question is simple: Who will stand with Qaiser Ayub?

Who will send a team?

Who will speak with the authorities?

Who will stand with his family?

Who will help Christians who have already fled Pakistan and are waiting for protection?

LEAD Ministries calls upon Christian leaders, churches and organizations around the world to take practical steps to support vulnerable Christians facing persecution and serious legal accusations.

Do not only speak about Christian persecution. Stand with Christians who are living through it.

Do not only call for protection. Help provide it.

Do not allow vulnerable Christians who have fled Pakistan to struggle alone for years while waiting for a safe place to rebuild their lives.

Qaiser Ayub remains under a death sentence.

His life is still at risk.

International Christian leadership must now decide whether it will simply express concern—or take meaningful action to protect a Christian man whose life is in danger.
