Hindu girl refuses to convert in Pakistan, is abducted & raped

KARACHI: A married Hindu girl abducted from Pakistan’s Sindh province has said she was threatened by her kidnappers to convert to Islam and raped after she refused to change her religion.
The girl said in a video uploaded on social media that she was raped in Samaro town in the Umarkot district and that the police are yet to register a case against the suspects.
Till Sunday, the police in Mirpurkhas have failed to register a case against the accused persons named by the girl, aHindu local leader said. “The girl and her family are sitting outside the police station but no case has been registered as yet,” the leader said.
The girlclaims in her video that she was abducted by Ibrahim Mangrio, Punho Mangrio and their accomplice.
She said they threatened her and told her to convert to Islam, but when she refused, she was raped for three days. The survivor said she returned home after managing to escape her abductors.
The abduction and forced conversion of young Hindu girls have become a major problem in Sindh, which has a large Hindu population in Thar, Umerkot, Mirpurkhas, Ghotki and Khairpur areas.
In June last year, teenage Hindu girl Kareena Kumari told a court here that she was forcibly converted to Islam and married to a Muslim man. In March last year, three Hindu girls — Satran Oad, Kaveeta Bheel and Anita Bheel – were abducted, converted to Islam and married to Muslim men within eight days. In another case on March 21 last year, Pooja Kumari was brutally shot dead outside her home in Rohri, Sukkur. Apparently, a Pakistani man wanted to marry her but she refused and he and two of his accomplices opened fire on her a few days later.
