— Faraz Pervaiz (@FarazPervaiz3)"A very heartbreaking situation for religious minorities in Pakistan, with no one raising their voice or stopping these inhumane acts. The silence of both religious and political leaders is criminal and invites injustice for the poor victims," another user expressed.
This is not the first time such incident came to light. In 2023, reports emerged of a minor Hindu girl allegedly abducted by an Afghan Pashtun family. She was coerced into converting to Islam and subsequently married to a Muslim man in Sindh province, Pakistan.
Raveena Meghwal was abducted from Sanjar Chang in Tando Allahyar, Southern Sindh, and transported to Karachi.
Her family, along with the Pakistan Dahrawar Ittehad (PDI), an organization advocating for minority rights in Sindh, filed a complaint regarding her abduction.
