#1 Here's the story: Police ignore rape of Christian girl. Another girl in the same area was gang-raped, forced to convert to Islam, and abducted/married despite being 14 and underage by Pakistani law -- all for the crime of talking about her faith at school.

I know it's not representative of all Pakistanis, but this is an all too familiar pattern.

#2 Hyderabad is in India. The chances are very high that the landlord was Hindu. This tragic case proves nothing except that India is very big and the Third World is very corrupt.

#3 Ummm... There's also a Hyderabad in Pakistan. That's where they're holding the Omar Sheikh trial in the Pearl killing. Since the article's in Dawn, I'd assume it's the one in Pakland, rather than in Andra Pradesh.
