Pakistan Valentine's celebrations leads to brawls

Two students were injured in a clash today in a university classroom in Karachi between students celebrating Valentine’s Day and others who objected to observance of the holiday as an unwelcome Western import.

One young man said “Happy Valentine’s Day” to a girl, drawing the anger of others who did not think the holiday has a place in Pakistan, and leading to a fist fight at Federal Government Urdu Science University, said Khalid Sheikh, a local police official.
