Another Hindu girl kidnapped, converted and forced to marry in Pakistan...

Another Hindu girl has been abducted, converted and forcibly married off in the Lyari area of the city, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) reported on Thursday.

What makes this incident sound more appalling is the alleged involvement of a police constable in the forced conversion of the 15-year-old girl, who has been finally recovered after her father lodged an FIR at the Baghdadi police station.

As the girl, Bharati, remains in custody at the women police station in Saddar for further investigations, her father alleges that she has been converted and married off against her will.

Amarnath of the HRCP says that the girl has been threatened not to revert to her original religion or else she would be liable to a death penalty. “As a result, she is confused and is scared to go back home.” Full story...
