Amid tight security, Pakistan court sends Hindu girl Mahek Kumari to production home
Jacobabad/IBNS: Amid protests by Hindu community members over the kidnap, conversion, and marriage of minor Hindu girl Mehak Kumari in Pakistan and a verdict awaited by a court, certain sections of people forced locals of Jacobabad city in Sindh province of the country to close shops on Tuesday to influence the decision in the case.
A Pakistan court has sent the girl child to a production home instead of handing her back to her parents.

Recently, Human rights activists from Pakistan and members of Indian community living in the United Kingdom demonstrated outside the Pakistan High Commission in London to seek justice for Kumari.

Kumari was married to a man named Ali Raza Machi.
