A shocking video of a Pakistani man, Osama Ahmed Khan, being beaten to death in Beijing, China surfaced on social media on Sunday.

The video which was shared by journalist Ali Arif on his Facebook page, shows Osama being beaten by two men using objects that look like a stone and brick.

According to information shared on social media, Osama was killed by the brother and father of a girl he was dating. The father-son duo strike have Osama face down on a pedestrian crossing as they beat him on a main road in a seemingly well-populated area.

Many cars, motors and pedestrians pass by but do not look twice or stop or even call the police.

The deceased belonged to Bahawalpur and was a Civil Engineering student at Shenyang University in Liaoning, China.

This is the second incident of this sort this year.

Earlier in July, an independent digital media company SupChina had shared a video of a 26-year-old Pakistani student, Moiz-ud-Din, being stabbed to death after a roadside dispute while he was similarly accompanied by his girlfriend.

According to Times of Islamabad, Moiz was enrolled in a Chinese language program at Nanjing Normal University, where he had been studying on a Chinese Scholarship Council (CSC) scholarship since 2017.
 
R.I.P young boy. Can't believe that no one came to rescue in the middle of a busy road.
 
Who.killed him, Chinese or someone from Pakistan? Surely things like honor don't occur there..
 
So what religion was the killer? I won't blame his religious belief for killing an innocent man unlike many people on this forum. I am disappointed how IK continues to ignore Chinese Muslim's ladies being kept apart from their Pak husbands in China.
 
China doesn't even treat its own Muslims correctly but this doesn't have to do with religion a fact is China is racist country they treat Africans Indians and Pakistanis and basically people of dark skin differently and are looked down upon. Obviously not all of China is like this but you do have a good number of people that think this way
 
Won’t believe it unless it is confirmed by the Chinese government.

When I visited China about a decade ago I had an interesting experience. My guide was a grad student. While we were having lunch with her friends she put her arm next to my arm and said "You are white, how come my skin is whiter than yours?" There was no malice or anything negative in what she said, she was just curious. She apparently considered an Indian to be White, I do not know how many other Chinese have the same opinion.
 
How did the Pakistani journalist get hold of the video?

Why transgress cultural red lines? China isn't a western country. Surely these students who come from similar conservative society ought to know this.

it's yet again some fake news apparently, the video being that of a Chinese, but even if it's true, he shouldn't have done what he wouldn't have done back home, where he would have been treated way way worse, as I should remind some of the Pak commentators who believe that they're living in Sweden and taking moral high ground that honor killings/mob violence are definitely a thing in Pakistan.

It's also funny to see the Indian comments, they don't know if they should either bash China and wax lyrical about the CPEC as usual, or applaud the Chinese for fighting their existential threat, that is love jihad.
