Pakistani police have arrested a mentally disabled 11-year-old girl after a mob accused her of desecrating pages of the Koran.

The mob demanded the Christian girl's arrest and threatened to burn down Christian homes outside the capital Islamabad, local media say.

Officials said the girl could not properly answer police questions.

Her parents have been taken into protective custody following threats and other Christian families have fled.

It is thought that the girl has Down's syndrome.

I.M.O.it does not belong in the dark ages..surely one thing we still have in our country is..freedom of speech provided it is said in a  correct and proper manner whether it is for or against the debate.

Of course it belongs in the dark ages. We're not talking about freedom of speech here, we're talking about an oppressive, uncompromising, intolerant ideology.

[geoffr70]

Btw, well said Albs!

Now someone just needs to tell the British establishment.

[flyer 0712]

I took it as...nickbat comments were being told that they  belonged in the dark ages....have i misunderstood the other comments...

[albitz]

Sorry mate,maybe I didnt word it very well.I meant that the attitude of the people demanding the arrest of the young girl etc. belonged in the dark ages.

[flyer 0712]

Quite so, and long may it continue, but to constantly bring very similar topics to the for and nothing else, gives a rather negative feel to that single minded approach. It's almost as though, if we had nothing to moan about, then we'd moan. No?

All up for free speech of course.
