LAHORE: The complainant in the FIR, registered against the factory’s security in-charge for allegedly torching some pages of the Holy Quran at the Pakistan Chip Board Factory in Jhelum on November 20, says he had not witnessed the torching incident but had filed the complaint on the statement of one of his colleagues who claimed he had seen it. 

Basharat Hussain, the complainant, has told The Express Tribune that he had entered the factory at 4pm that day and had seen Masood Ahmed, one of his colleagues, carrying half burnt pages of the Holy Quran and shouting at Security In-charge Qamar Ahmed Tahir. “He was threatening to tell local clerics about what Tahir he had done.”
