Pakistan says police orchestrated killing of doctor accused of blasphemy
Family of Dr Shah Nawaz can file murder charges against police officers over extrajudicial killing, official says
Pakistan’s government has said police orchestrated the killing of a doctor who was in custody having been accused of blasphemy. Officers then lied about the circumstances of his death, claiming he was killed in a shootout between police and armed men, a provincial minister said.
The statement marks the first time the government has accused security forces of what the doctor’s family and rights groups have said amounted to an extrajudicial killing carried out by police.
