Let the persecuted know you care

I told you the tragic story this week of a Christian woman in Pakistan violently attacked by a radical Islamist ...

And how her unborn child died in the assault.

The Gatestone Institute goes on to describe what happened when the woman’s husband rightly sought justice from local authorities:

When Nadeem went to file a report, police asked for a medical certificate from the hospital, “however, when we submitted the certificate, the police refused to register a case, saying that the certificate had not been signed by the concerned doctor.” When Nadeem went back to the hospital, the doctor still refused to sign the document:

Why such reluctance? “Both the police and the doctor have been influenced by the Muslim owner of the brick kiln” at which the couple works!

Human rights activist Napolean Qayyum said: “The poor couple’s unborn child was murdered. The medical report certifies that the woman was brutally tortured, which caused the baby’s death, yet the police are still refusing to register an FIR [First Information Report].”

Christians suffer injustice like this regularly in countries where following Jesus comes at a high cost.

In Pakistan, Christians are called “filthy” and discriminated against at all levels of society.

But since local police will not stand up for what is just, I urge you to do it.
