<p>We were shocked by this brutal killing and immediately issued a statement condemning
this act. It is essential the authorities investigate these atrocious murders and
bring those responsible to justice. We regularly raise the misuse of blasphemy laws
with representatives of the Pakistani government. Most recently, the Parliamentary
Under-Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my hon. Friend the
Member for Bournemouth East (Mr Ellwood), raised this with the Pakistan High Commissioner
on 28 October. We will continue to raise our concerns at the highest levels in Pakistan.</p>
