Abstract

The offence of blasphemy is one that elicits strong feelings. Every time it comes up, it kicks off a highly contentious discussion in Pakistan. Every time a new event takes place in Pakistan, the country's blasphemy laws are thrust into the spotlight. After doing an in-depth investigation into the matter, one discovers that it is a very serious crime, and as a result, strong action needs to be taken against the person responsible for it.

The problem can be solved by enhancing the preliminary stages of the experiments.
