The objective behind these cases, which are growing increasingly common, is to expand the Muslim community at the expense of the non-Muslim community. The Islamic community should always be growing, and the non-Muslim community always shrinking. It’s an inherently Islamic supremacist imperative.
“A 14-year-old Faisalabad Christian girl is kidnapped, forced to convert and marry,” by Shafique Khokhar, Asia News, September 25, 2019:
Faisalabad (AsiaNews) – Samra Bibi, a 14-year-old Pakistani girl, was abducted by a Muslim man, Muhammad Ramiz, forced to convert to Islam and forced to marry him in what is but the latest in a long series of kidnappings and forced conversions of underaged minority girls, often obtained under threat and after sexual violence.
Robin Daniel, president of the National Minorities Alliance of Pakistan, says he is “unable to understand why these girls are treated just like a commodity, why they are not brought to court?”
“According to the law, no minor girl can be converted to any other religion but here no one has courage to challenge the radicals who are committing such crimes,” he told AsiaNews. Samra is the daughter of Munir Masih, a Christian from Rasulpura, near Faisalabad. On 16 September, whilst her father and brother Shahzad were away for work, she was taken away by her abductor and four accomplices.
Her brother saw her as she was being taken from the house and forced into a car with the kidnappers, but failed to reach the car before it sped off.
When Munir Masih went to the police station to file a complaint, police officers refused to file a report for two days. Instead, the investigative officer, Abdul Rasheed, used abusive language against him rather than take action to secure the girl’s safe return.
Only on 18 September, following the intervention of leaders of the local Christian community, did police start to hear witnesses.
Munir complains that “Muhammad Ramiz had long set his sights on Christian girls and teased them. When they told him to stop, he used abusive language against them. When we were not at home, he abducted our underage girl. About ten days have passed and no one has been arrested.”
