Two Christians and a Muslim man were on Tuesday sentenced to death by a Pakistani anti-terrorism court for committing blasphemy.
The Anti-Terrorism Court of Gujranwala district announced the verdict in the case which was pending for the last one year.
ATC Gujranwala Judge Bushra Zaman handed down death penalty to Anjum, Javed Naz (who are both Christians) and Jaffer Ali for committing blasphemy.
Naz and Ali have been sentenced to an additional 35 years each. The judge also imposed a fine of Rs 5 million on Anjum and Rs 8 million each on Naz and Ali.
Gujranwala city police had arrested Anjum, Naz and Ali a year ago on blasphemy charges.
The judge announced the verdict after prosecution presented all witnesses.
