[A] Muslim factory owner tortured his Christian employee to death -- Waqas Salamat, age 18 -- for refusing to continue working for him.... Muhammad instantly sent some factory workers to collect him; they bound his hands and feet and carried him to Muhammad's factory. There, Muhammad, his son, and several Muslim employees began torturing Waqas for hours—beating him with pipes and administering electric shocks to him—until he died. He was the main breadwinner for his impoverished family. According to his mother, Rubina.
