In Peshawar, around 200 demonstrators took to the streets, smashing windows at the main Lady Reading hospital, where many of the victims were treated, and blocking the main Grand Trunk road.

In front of All Saints church, more than 100 people chanted slogans demanding justice and attacking the national government for failing to protect Christians.

And they had harsh words for cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan, whose Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party runs the provincial government in northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.

Protesters shouted abusive slogans against the cricketer turned politician, including chants of “Imran is a dog”.

Angry Christian protesters smacks shoes on a poster of Imran Khan.

“Imran Khan and his senior deputy have failed to protect Christians at their praying centres,” Khalid Shahzad, who lost five family members in the attack, told AFP.

“The government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Imran Khan are just making slogans, there is nothing practical (to protect us). They do not have any sympathy for minorities.”
