Lahore: March 17, 2015. (PCP) The British Pakistani Christian Association BPCA reports that We have just received news that a church has been burnt down in the village of Lalyani, near Kasur. This is the same town in which brick kiln bonded laborers, Shama and Shahzadwere burnt alive 4th November 2015. Two Christian Girls Sherish and Farzana were gang-raped in the same town earlier this year, after years of taunting it would happen to them as they were Christians. Wilson Chowdhry, Chairman of the BPCA, said; "Pakistan is reaching a point of no return, the change that the first consecutive democratically elected government suggested, has not come to fruition. We are now seeing more internal turmoil and polarisation then ever before. Christians in Pakistan have always had a tough life, but these latest acts of violence illustrate a pending humanitarian crises of previously unheard of levels. This might well be the beginning of the end for Christianity in Pakistan. Even if we survive the current climate the fact remains that the life of Christians in Pakistan has reached a nadir"
