Pakistan Frees Chinese Citizen on Bail Over Blasphemy Charge

A Chinese citizen accused of blasphemy in Pakistan was released on bail after an anti-terror court ruled that no offense had been committed.

The main accuser in the blasphemy case kept changing his statement and bail has been granted until the case is concluded, which may take a few months, according to a police official. The Chinese citizen is the head of the transport department at Dasu power plant that’s currently under construction, and was detained about more than a week ago.
