Lawlessness in Pakistan has gotten out of control. Some of the political parties (TLP for instance, they brought the whole country to halt when courts lawfully decided to absolve asia bibi (another blasphemy case)) that support this kind of justice were installed/supported by the military to undermine the then democratic government (PTI).
There was similar propaganda done when the military decided to align themselves with china and away from the US influence. Basically, it’s a lot easier to control people with this kind of mindset.
Harward: get this man over here!
