Husband tortured 12-year-old wife

Pakistani police took custody of a 12-year-old girl allegedly tortured by her husband and sent her to a women’s police station.

“We picked Shahnaz after receiving information that her husband was torturing her,” Sartaj Jagirani of the Waleed police station told Pakistani daily Dawn. She would be sent to hospital for a medical check-up, he added.

Her husband Abdul Latif Brohi and brother Aijaz Siyal have been arrested.

Shahnaz told Dawn that her brother Ismail had sold her in Hyderabad for 80,000 Pakistani Rupees (700 Euro) when she was only five years old.

She was rescued about three months ago on high court’s orders on a petition filed by her brother Ajiaz who later sold her to Latif Brohi for 125,000 Pakistani Rupees (1000 Euro) and a marriage was solemnised three months ago.

She alleged that her husband was a drug addict who used to beat her and keep her in locked room. She also said that her in-laws used to threaten to kill her.

She said she had no mother and would prefer to live with her father after her divorce.

Shahnaz said she had five married sisters.

Coming soon to a Sharia court by you. Seriously, they have Sharia Coourts in London as they prepare for the transition. Reminds me of when they turned over Hong Kong to the Chi-Comms. Except here, they are turning over their entire civilization.

Thank you! She is totally innocent in this.

I would take her into my home where she could be a kid with my own daughters.

Sick, sick people. May Our Lord have mercy on their souls.

Why should we be outraged. That’s Islam.
