Protests held across Pakistan after 7-year-old girl's rape and murderBy Mubasher Bukhari LAHORE, Pakistan (Reuters) - Protests broke out across Pakistan on Thursday after the rape and murder of a 7-year-old girl in a district south of Lahore, due to public anger at what is seen as the authorities' failure to investigate such cases. It is the 12th such murder in the town of Kasur in a year, and has raised concern that a serial killer may be on the loose. Two people were killed on Wednesday when police fired at angry protesters in Kasur, and a local resident said schools, offices, and markets remained shut in the town on Thursday.
