Karachi: A 13-year-old Christian girl was abducted and forcibly converted to Islam in Karachi, Pakistan.
Arzoo Raja was abducted by a 44-year-old man and reportedly got married to him.
Naveed Walter, president of Human Rights Focus Pakistan (HRFP) said, “The same day’s abduction, conversion and marrying is a common practice in such cases and it has happened with Arzoo also in the same sequence.”
“In court premises, Arzoo was denied to meet her mother as she was stopped by Ali Azhar,” said Naveed Walter.
Arzoo’s picture has also been replaced on legal documents, as raised by her mother Rita.
Naveed said that the girl is falsely presented as an adult in court including conversion certificate of Madressah Jamia Islamia and marriage certificate with her new name Arzoo Faatima.
