Woman in Pakistan Accused of Blasphemy Over Dress Print, Rescued by Female Officer Amid Mob

In a crowded marketplace in Lahore, Pakistan, a woman wearing a dress with Arabic print found herself at the center of a dangerous accusation of blasphemy after mistaken interpretations of the design as Quranic verses. As an angry mob gathered, alleging blasphemy, the situation became increasingly tense. Fortunately, a female police officer, Syeda Shehrbano Naqvi, intervened to defuse the situation and escort the woman to safety. Despite explanations that the print was a fashion statement common in Gulf states, the mob remained unconvinced until the police stepped in. This incident highlights the delicate nature of blasphemy allegations in Pakistan, where past cases have resulted in severe public backlash. #globalgossip
