“He was killed by a young man inside the court while waiting his turn to appear before the judge,” official Misal Khan told AFP.

Nasim was first arrested in April 2018 after a local accused him of blasphemy, a highly inflammatory charge in deeply conservative Pakistan that has sparked mob lynchings, vigilante murders and mass protests.He was a member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community that many mainstream Islamic schools consider to hold blasphemous beliefs.

The group have been designated non-Muslims under Pakistan’s constitution and have long been persecuted. Senior police officer Mansur Amaan said authorities were investigating how the attacker managed to get his hands on a firearm inside a courtroom.Subscribe to our newsletter and get news delivered to your mailbox.
