Voice of America News – A student in Pakistan stabbed his professor to death earlier this week after accusing him of committing blasphemy and promoting un-Islamic culture at a college in southern Punjab’s Bahawalpur city, according to law enforcement officials.
The student, Khateeb Hussain, attacked his English professor, Khalid Hameed, with a knife Wednesday at Government Sadiq Egerton College.
The attacker was apparently unhappy about plans for an upcoming farewell party the professor was arranging that would include both male and female students of the college. The attacker allegedly viewed the party as vulgar and against the teachings of Islam.
