Eight people were injured when a mob stoned police and a blasphemy accused in Talwandi Bhindran village in Niddoke police precincts on Monday.
Village residents besieged the house of Shahzad Ahmad (22), a resident of the same village, and tried to stone him to death for allegedly burning a copy of the Holy Quran.
Large contingents of police headed by the district police officer reached the village and arrested the accused. As police tried to take the accused to the police station, the mob outside his house tried to snatch him.
When police put up resistance, the mob stoned both the police and the accused. Eight people were injured in the ensuing struggle. Police had to resort to aerial firing to disperse the mob. The accused was finally shifted to an undisclosed location with the help of Elite Force.
