Terrorists in Pakistan have murdered a Christian pastor who dedicated his life to helping persecuted the persecuted Church in his country.
Gunmen on motorbikes shot William Silraj in the head and chest as he was driving away from Sunday service at a church outside Peshawar city centre.
According to Aid to the Church in Need, also in the car was Rev. Patrick Naeem, priest-in-charge of the Church of Pakistan parish, who was rushed to hospital with gun wounds but was later described as stable.
News channels showed emergency services taking Mr Silraj out of the car and people chanting “Long live Jesus Christ”, as they carried him to his home.
