The video, broadcast on Pakistani news channels, shows a lynch mob taking turns to savagely beat the two boys with sticks, drawing blood from them before dragging and hanging their dead bodies from a nearby pole.
But perhaps just as shocking is that none of the dozens of people and police watching tried to stop the vicious attack.
It is now thought the boys, who were on their way to play cricket in Sialkot, an eastern Punjab province, may have been mistaken for robbers by the group who decided to
deliver brutal justice for their supposed crime last Sunday.
The scenes have outraged Pakistanis, some who are questioning how their society could passively watch the shocking killings without intervening.
The News, an English-language daily newspaper, wrote: 'Is this what we are? Savages? So utterly bereft of a speck of humanity that a crowd of ordinary men are passive spectators to public murder?'
do u know why the two brothers died brutally because the so called sialkot`s NAZIM`s son had some
personal problem with those two innocent brothers that's why the Police were involved in all that
case and Rescue1122 as well .And after the death of those two innocent brothers their eyes were snatched from their faces by those rascals and the people who were beating those brothers were from PPP. that's why our so called president Zardari(idiot) is silent.
