Mehrabadi (Urdu: مہرآبادى) is a neighborhood on the outskirts of Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan.[1][2] It has a mixed population that includes a substantial number of people from the country's Christian minority.[3] It is located near sector G-11 of the city.[citation needed]
In August 2012, it was the location of the controversial arrest of 14-year-old girl, Rimsha Masih, on blasphemy charges.[4] The resulting inter-communal tensions caused most of the Christian inhabitants of the area to flee to other parts of the city.[5] As of 31 August 2012[update] many had begun to return to their homes in the area.[1]
