Father-of-two Yasir Masih has been been under severe pressure to convert after his spouse accepted Islam some time ago. Masih's wife, who reportedly, converted without his knowledge, is said to have attempted lure Masih by promising him cash and property.
The woman, who stopped living with the family following Masih's refusal to convert, sent him a feeler. When the man arrived at the spot, dozens of men 'greeted him'. Masih was asked to convert once again after being seated. A pistol and cash were placed at the table before him.
The men let Masih and the children go after his daughter vouched that she wanted to live with "Jesus Pappa", according to Pak Christian News. Police is said to have turned a blind eye despite Masih's spouse confessing how she had attempted to poison her husband and children.
Center for Legal Aid, Assistance and Settlement (CLAAS) Legal In-Charge Robina Ghazal told The Friday Times -- Naya Daur that such cases were routine. This, she said, was not without precedent. She also confirmed the story as having transpired.
