Pakistani police have launched a murder hunt after the widow and mother-in-law of a man shot dead by CIA contractor Raymond Davis last year were killed.

Police suspect Zohra Haider's father of killing her and her mother.

It is thought he was upset at her plans to re-marry, fearing either dishonour or that he might lose out financially.

The acquittal came when relatives of the dead men pardoned him in court in return for receiving compensation estimated to be about 200 million rupees ($2.34m, £1.1m), known as "blood money". Under Pakistani Sharia law, relatives of a murder victim can pardon the killer.

Yes, MPAC are wrong

Read a recent which is as always lambasting others for not doing enough.

Thing is that on this occasion - and others too, they are simply wrong.

Geert Wilders was not banned from the UK for hurting Muslim Sentiment. He is not being challenged in the Dutch courts for hurting Muslim sentiment.

I watched the film he made - and by far the biggest thing against it was that it was crap. It did not need refuting.

By kicking up a fuss, MPAC (and others) have played into his hands, giving him a legitimacy when there was none.

Talking of "double standards", I am quite sure MPAC are (rightly) against, for example, Yusuf Al Qaradawi being banned from entering the UK.
