SHEIKHUPURA: The government on Saturday paid a compensation of Rs10,000 to a fruit seller whose bananas were looted by people protesting over Aasia Bibi’s acquittal in a blasphemy case in Sheikhupura.
Assistant Commissioner Sheikhupura Fazail Mudassir reached the residence of five-year old Muhammad Mohsin and handed him the compensation.
A day earlier, Minister for Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry asked the Punjab government to compensate the fruit seller whose cart was attacked by mobsters.
According to a widely-circulated video on social as well as national media, the child was selling bananas at Batti Chowk when he was attacked by protesters who had their hands full with bananas as the poor boy looked on helplessly.
The vendor’s cart was looted by protesters belonging to the Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) which led the protests across the country against the Supreme Court’s verdict in the Aasia Bibi case.
The protests ended last night when talks between the federal government and the TLP remained successful following which the two sides signed an agreement. The religious parties agreed to end the nationwide protests.
