Advocates in Pakistan Fear 12-Year-Old Christian Could Be Returned to Abductor
01/31/2021 Pakistan (International Christian Concern) – According to Morning Star News, advocates for a 12-year-old Christian girl found chained in the home of a 45-year-old Muslim man in Pakistan fear he will be granted custody of the girl by local courts. This comes after the Christian girl testified she had converted to Islam and married the man of her own free will.
On December 5, 2020, police in Faisalabad recovered Farah Shaheen, a 12-year-old Christian girl who was reportedly abducted from her family in June. Human rights activists reported Shaheen had marks of abuse on her body and was transferred to a shelter home by local courts.
