At least 42 cases pertaining to blasphemy were registered across Pakistan in a single month, according to data compiled by a social media user. Most of those accused of blasphemy belonged to the Shia community, who have been booked under 295-A and 298 sections of the Pakistan Penal Code for allegedly ‘insulting the companions of Prophet Muhammad.’ Up to 80 people are known to be imprisoned in Pakistan on blasphemy charges, half of whom face life in prison or the death penalty, according to the US Commission on International Religious Freedom.

Sort:  

A 'crime' with no victim, but it gets severe sentences. Such repressive laws harm freedom, which is exactly why they exist. It's religion as control.

You will be punished for spreading atheism among the weakhearted.
