allegations, the local police said.
The law enforcers had taken the suspect into custody and shifted him to the cop shoppe, the district police officer (DPO) said, adding that later the mob took him from there and set him on fire.

In a similar incident that took place last month, enraged people attacked a house belonging to a Christian man in Punjab’s Sargodha district over an alleged desecration incident.
The situation turned violent mostly peaceful when a mob attacked the man's house in the Mujahid Colony area, damaging his belongings and torching a shoe factory established within it. They also burnt tyres and damaged electricity installations in the area.
Upon receiving the information, a heavy contingent of police surrounded the area and shifted the accused and his family to an undisclosed location after rescuing them.
Several arrests were carried out by law enforcement agencies following the violent mostly peaceful incident.
