(5 Jan 2021) Pakistan's Supreme Court on Tuesday ordered authorities to rebuild a century-old Hindu temple that was vandalized and set on fire by a mob last week, an act of violence that has drawn condemnation from the government and from leaders of the minority Hindus.
The court issued its ruling after authorities said they arrested more than 100 people for attacking the temple and several police officers were fired for neglecting to protect the structure.
The temple was destroyed on 30 December in Karak, a town in northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.
Supporters of the radical Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam party and residents attacked the building after being incited by a local cleric who was opposed to the temple's planned renovation.
Although Muslims and Hindus generally live peacefully together in Pakistan, there have been other attacks on Hindu temples in recent years.
