Pakistan Taliban targets Lahore Christians in Easter attack
The militant group has threatened more attacks across the eastern city of Lahore, calling it a message to the prime minister. A police official told DW that the "terrorists wanted to target innocent people."

Pakistan's 'guns for teachers' drive
Pakistan has allowed teachers to carry guns to protect themselves from militants. But critics say the move will promote violence.
Deadly blast rocks Pakistan's Lahore
"The target was Christians," said Jamaat-ul-Ahrar spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan. "We want to send this message to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif that we have entered Lahore."
"He can do what he wants but he won't be able to stop us. Our suicide bombers will continue these attacks," Ehsan added.
Tanvir Shahzad, DW's Lahore correspondent, earlier said that many of Pakistan's Christians, who have been targeted in the country, were participating in festivities to mark Easter. Christians are a minority in Pakistan where more than 90 percent of the population is Muslim.
"There were more people in the park than usual because of the holiday. The country's Christians were also celebrating Easter in the park," Shahzad said.
Last year, suicide bombers attacked two churches in Lahore, killing more than a dozen people and injuring over 50 others.
