A scene of atrocity in Lahore by the oppressive ruler Mir Manu. The police arrested the Sikh ladies and children. They were given the choice of acceptance of Islam or death, but all women preferred death and refused to accept Islam. The rulers didn't provide anything to eat. The children were snatched away from their mothers and thrown up like ball, to fall upon spears and other sharp weapons. They were cut to pieces before their mothers and necklaces were made and put on their mothers and their flesh was thrown into the mothers' laps.
