Blasphemy

-Submitted by David Drumm (Nal), Guest Blogger

We have previously discussed blasphemy incidents here and here. In the Bizarro world of blasphemy, this one takes the cake.

A doctor in Hyderabad, Pakistan has been arrested by Pakistani authorities on suspicion of blasphemy.

Police are investigating whether the doctor should be charged with blasphemy. The incident for the doctor began when he threw away the business card of Muhammad Faizan, a representative for a pharmaceutical company.

Muhammad Faizan had visited the doctor’s clinic and handed the doctor one of his business cards. When Muhammad later saw the doctor throw the card away he went straight to the police and filed a complaint, because Faizan and the Prophet have the same name.

Crazy piled on top of crazy.
