PAKISTAN: A Christian lawyer has been threatened with dire consequences for assisting three Christian women, who were stripped naked and paraded on the street
A Christian lawyer has been threatened with dire consequences if he continues to provide legal assistance to three Christian women who were stripped naked and paraded on the street by the henchmen of ruling party.
