The Swat lynching also highlights systemic failures within Pakistan’s legal and governmental institutions. There is a pervasive lack of trust in the government’s ability to enforce the law and ensure justice.

The legal system’s inability to handle blasphemy cases with transparency and fairness only exacerbates the problem.
