A police officer in Quetta, Pakistan, fatally shot a blasphemy suspect named Syed Khan inside a police station on Thursday. Khan had been arrested after an enraged mob accused him of insulting the Prophet Muhammad. The officer responsible for the shooting has been arrested. Blasphemy accusations in Pakistan often lead to mob violence, despite the country's death penalty laws for blasphemy offenses never being enacted. The incident sparked protests from groups demanding Khan be handed over, including a grenade attack on the police station. Authorities managed to disperse the crowd, but Pakistan has seen a surge in attacks on blasphemy suspects in recent years.
