Al-Qaida-Tied Groups Suspected of Anti-Christian Attacks in Pakistan
Mob violence that killed at least eight Christians in Pakistan on Saturday is being linked to Islamic extremists from groups tied to al-Qaida and the Taliban.
A senior government official told Reuters news service on Tuesday that Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan (SSP), an outlawed pro-Taliban Sunni Muslim group, and its al-Qaida-linked offshoot, Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ), were believed to be behind the weekend riot in Gorja, located in the central province of Punjab.
