Pakistani Christians Have Been Burnt Alive
July 17, 2010 9:28 AM A dramatic new documentary on the terrible events that took place in Korian and Gojra in 2009 when Christians were burned alive by extremist Muslims, has been released.

The documentary called "Burning Alive: The fate of Pakistani Christians" was written and directed by Professor Anjum James Paul, along with Nosheen D'souza and Leonard D'souza.

"This is the first time in the history of Pakistan that such a documentary has been prepared for a record of minorities and especially Christians," Professor Paul, director of the SHADOW Organization told ANS.

"The tragic incidents of Shanti nagar, Sangla Hill and Bahminiwala took place before the incidents of Korian and Gojra and we could not find any documentary record and due to this perhaps Pakistani Christians had forgotten the impacts of these incidents. Not only houses and churches were burnt to ashes by the extremists but the Holy Bibles were also burnt without any reason.

"There was a new trend of brutality in Christian Colony of Gojra when on on August 1, 2009, Islamic extremists burnt alive seven Christian women and children."
