Pakistan: Hindu minor girl, promised to be given free ration, gang-raped amid ongoing flood crisis in Sindh
Quetta, Pakistan: A Hindu minor girl has claimed she was lured by the promise that she would be given free ration and then gang-raped for two days in the flood-hit Sindh region of Pakistan, media reports said on Wednesday.
The 13-year-old victim, a resident of Shahdadpur village in Sanghar district of Sindh, informed that when she was going to the market (Aug 31) to buy vegetables, Khalid Mashi and Barshek Mashi of the same area lured her to a deserted place outside the village, with an offer of free ration, and then gang-raped her by giving her intoxicants, reports ANI.
An NGO named Voice of Pakistan Minority also confirmed the development on Twitter.
The NGO tweeted: "In the promise of getting a food ration, a young #Hindu girl has been brutally raped for 2 days in a flood-hit area of Shahdadpur district Sanghar, Sindh. This is such a shameful act and completely disgusting."
The police had not registered a report until Sept 1 (1600 hrs PST) in this regard.
The family members and other residents of the village have warned of a strong protest against the district administration if the culprits are not booked and punished, ANI reported.
