Pakistan inquiry finds doctor accused of blasphemy was killed in fake police shootout
blasphemy was killed in a fake police shootout last week in Pakistan after violent protests by Islamists, a government minister said on Thursday, ordering criminal proceedings against the officers involved.
It was the second such killing in police custody in a week.
Shah Nawaz, a doctor working in the town of Umerkot in southern Pakistan, went into hiding after local clerics accused him of blasphemy over a Facebook post, which he said in a video statement was posted on one of his old accounts that had been hacked long ago, according to his family.
The clerics then led violent protests in the area, attacking police stations and burning police vehicles.
His family said Nawaz had surrendered to police after receiving assurances from investigators that he would have a chance to prove his innocence. Instead, they said, he was killed in a shootout.
