Haq complained to the police, who registered a blasphemy report against Humayun Masih (27), a known drug addict who has spent three years in a psychiatric hospital. When the police went to arrest him, they found a crowd of Muslims had gathered, eager to burn Humayun to death. After Humayun was taken into police custody, Muslim clerics led the mob to Dhup Sarri, Sanda area in Lahore, the Christian district where Humayun Masih lives.
