(By Asif Joseph Kalyan) The last rites of Martyr Rashid Emmanuel and Martyr Sajid Emmanuel, the two Christian brothers who were shot dead on Monday by masked Muslim extremists in broad daylight in district courts when they were coming out of court room after hearing on accusation of blasphemy were performed here today in local graveyard of Faisalabad among grieving family members and friends. Yesterday, the incident was followed by violent protests all over the city. The family members protested against murder of Emmanuel Brothers but Muslim Imamas of mosques announced “Muslims come out of homes and let us kill all infidel Christians“. On which Muslims organizations took out rallies and processions to justify killing of Christians. Heavy contingent of police noted the situation and dispersed the protestors. The two brothers were buried in the Jamra Road grave yard after their last rites were completed in a catholic Church.
