Lahore: Joseph Colony victims pass traumatized night

The mayhem caused by a charged mob in a Christian neighborhood in Lahore left a trail of ransacked, looted and burnt houses. Sobbing residents of Joseph Colony were seen sitting on the debris and ash of their houses with eyes full of tears into the night. The protesting community refused to accept food offered by the provincial government and barred rescue workers from carrying out their activities, demanding the administration that the perpetrators be brought behind the bars. The residents also protested when Provincial Minister Rana Sanaullah along with Hamza Shahbaz visit them. Former federal minister Jay Salik said Rs200,000 compensation, announced by the government was not sufficient.
