According to the information given by the police on Friday, this man named Tayyab Ahmed was allegedly murdered because of his faith. Police said 40-year-old Tayyab Ahmed was at his brother’s shop in Rawalpindi city, about 275 kilometers from Lahore, when an unidentified man attacked him with an axe.
