KARACHI, PAKISTAN, April 29, 2017 (Daily Excelsior): A Hindu temple in Pakistan has been vandalized in the southern Sindh province and a case of blasphemy and terrorism has been registered against three unidentified persons, police said today. Police said statues of Deities were damaged and some of the broken parts were found in a nearby sewerage line. The incident occurred yesterday in Thatta district’s Gharo town.
Local Hindu councillor Lal Meheshwri said that he had been working late at the temple for a monthly religious service. “Someone seems to have entered the temple between 1:00 am and 5:00 am. When worshippers came in the morning for prayers, the statues were missing. This is the first time that that such a thing has happened in the temple’s history,” he was quoted by the report.
