A nine-month-old Pakistani baby accused of attempted murder has gone into hiding in an attempt to avoid charges that could be, maybe, somewhat overblown.

Baby Musa Khan was charged with attempted murder along with his father and grandfather after a mob angered by gas cuts and price increases turned violent, throwing stones at police and gas employees trying to collect bills. Apparently, the baby was slapped with the charge when a victim complained that the whole family had beaten him up. The complaint was taken very literally.

The baby, out on bail, is supposed to return to court on April 12, but his grandfather, Muhamad Yasin, said the family hasn't decided yet whether to take him to court. According to Reuters, baby Musa hasn't been all that cooperative with police so far:

At his first appearance in court last week, Musa cried while his fingerprints were taken by a court official. Later, the baby sucked on a bottle of milk and tried to grab journalists' microphones as his grandfather spoke to the media. "He does not even know how to pick up his milk bottle properly, how can he stone the police?" Yasin asked journalists at the court last Thursday.

According to CNN, Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif ordered the suspension of the officer who registered the case against the baby. Still, Musa's family is taking no chance. Their lawyer said yesterday that "The police filed a wrong, false arrest charge sheet and brought this innocent 9-month-old into this court room for an appearance."

Pakistan's police force is known to be rife with corruption, and Pakistan's The News International took the story as opportunity to reflect on the police force's incompetencies, noting:

How far police inefficiency and malice can go in Pakistan sometimes is hard to guess, as it nominated a nine-month-old infant as one of the accused of planning a murder, threatening a police team and interfering in state affairs. The interesting yet shocking development in how police works was unveiled on Thursday as an additional district and sessions judge, Rafaqat Ali Qamar, granted post-arrest bail to a nine-month old infant, Muhammad Mosa, on charges of planning the murder, threatening of a police team and interfering in state affairs.

Yasin suspects that the charges don't have all that much to do with the baby. "Police are vindictive. Now they are trying to settle the issue on personal grounds." He adds, "that's why I sent my grandson to Faisalabad for protection." Perhaps there he'll manage to finally shake his criminal lifestyle.

fitgirlandfoodie

Not sure if that's legit, but two traveller children (under the age of 5) were placed on the police system (pulse) here in Ireland because...well..because traveller children are dangerous?? (basically it was complete and utter discrimination)

Do you really believe everything you read?

And what's your point in relation to this post? No I do not believe everything I read, however, if anyone knows about Pakistani law, this story can certainly be true. Plus it's been all over world news, not just MSM.

CassandraBurgos83

Well of course I believe it...It has to be true if it's on the internet bc we all know they cannot put anything false online ;-)

WTH?! This whole post is full of nutso news!! Oh my word... Crazy crazy, I really hope my almost 9 month old son doesn't have to go to court - because he would totally be accused of abusing others with his hair pulling, grabbing earrings and nibbling on wrists.... hmmm.... smh

angelique_redhead

The crazy, it burns! It's truly amazing what's been going on in the world lately. I also noticed they had stoned a couple of "witches" to death lately.

Rocbola

I read this one a few days ago. It's only a matter of time before our for-profit-prison system starts pushing for 9 month olds in America to be put in jail.

WHAT KIND OF A WORLD DO WE LIVE IN WHERE PEOPLE THINK IT'S COMPLETELY ACCEPTABLE TO SUBSTITUTE A "K" FOR A "C" IN A WORD SO HAPHAZARDLY AND WITHOUT REGARD FOR OTHERS?!?!??

I dunno if I'd post this if I were you. Who knows who's watching? If the FBI shows up at your door . . .



(BTW: Not saying your son is a "bad boy" for the moment or for life. But, ya know, that Pakistani 9 month old, well . . . )

um. Paki is a slur... Pakistani is a more appropriate (and correct term) to use.

I read this on CNN, it's so ridiculous. It's just police taking it to a personal level. Those police are going to be the laughing stock of the town!
