LAHORE: An anti-terrorism court (ATC) on Tuesday summoned prosecution witnesses by January 26 in a lynching case of two Muslims and damaging government property after Youhnnabad twin church blasts. Previously, the ATC had framed charges against 42 Christian suspects in the case. A mob had killed two men in the aftermath of deadly church bombings in Lahore’s Youhanabad area on March 15, 2015. Fifteen people, a woman and a policeman among them, were killed and 85 others suffered injuries after two bombers blew themselves up outside two churches in Youhanabad. Soon after the incident, members of the Christian community launched protests. The protesters turned violent and an angry mob grabbed two unidentified people who they claimed were accomplices of the suicide bombers and started thrashing them.
