Lawyer Aneeqa Maria of The Voice Society told Morning Star News that the couple had petitioned Lahore High Court for police protection due to threats they and Masih's family had received.
According to the lawyer, Nadia's father and her brothers seized the a rickshaw in which the couple were travelling and took them to a nearby farm where they beat them. Masih was shot dead and his wife seriously injured. Both were left for dead, although she survived and is being treated in hospital.
