Nursing School Shut Amid Blasphemy Scare
You sure don’t see headlines like this in the states (yet): Nursing school shut amid blasphemy scare
A Pakistani nursing school has been shut and seven members of staff suspended after Islamist students protested over allegations blasphemy had been committed at the school, one of its officials says.
Women religious students from a pro-Taliban mosque protested outside the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences nursing school in the capital late last week after rumours spread that verses from the Koran posted on a wall had been defaced.
But the head of an institute team investigating the issue denied any blasphemy had been committed and said someone was trying to stir up trouble between the school’s Muslims and Christians.
There are so many hard situations in this world. We’re very fortunate to live where we do.
