regulations, and be clear on issues like security and
privacy.
Ms. Rona C. Catubig

and integrity and never join something just because

years in jail for cannibalism
Lahore: Two Pakistani brothers, who spent two years in jail for
cannibalism in 2011, were on Wednesday sentenced to 12 years
rigorous imprisonment by an anti- terrorism court in a fresh
human flesh eating case that shocked the nation.
The Anti-Terrorism Court in Sargodha district of Punjab province
announced the verdict two months after they were arrested in
April.
The two -- Muhammad Arif (35) and Farman Ali (30) -- will
undergo rigorous imprisonment in the Mianwali district jail.
Ms. Rona C. Catubig
21. They belong to a small town of Darya Khan of Bhakhar district some
400 kilometers from Lahore.
They were re-arrested in April for allegedly eating the flesh of a dead
child at their house. Both of them had earlier been in prison for two
years for cannibalism.
According to police, the brothers had dug up more than 100 corpses
from the local graveyard and eaten them before they were arrested
following tip off from neighbours in 2011.
Since there has been no laws related to cannibalism in Pakistan, the
brothers were convicted for "desecrating a grave" at that time.
Ms. Rona C. Catubig

human flesh.
Both of them are married and have children but their wives
abandoned them reportedly when they came to know that their
husbands were cannibals.
Since there is no law in Pakistan related to cannibalism, the police
arrested the duo under the Anti-Terrorism Act declaring that their
action created fear and insecurity among people.
