Pakistan: Hindu girl abducted, forcibly converted & married off; brother who rescued her killed by Muslim mob

Persecution of Hindus continues unabated in Pakistan and Islamism has claimed yet another innocent life in the Islamic nation. The case of a Hindu man being murdered by a Muslim mob for resisting the abduction of his sister has come to light from Pakistan’s Sindh province notorious for forcible abduction, religious conversion, and marriage of Hindu girls.

The incident was reported by Sindh-based journalist-activist Veengas’ portal and Twitter account The Rise News even while the mainstream media of Pakistan has not reported the case as is their wont.

The case has been reported from Sindh’s Kunti town located in Umerkot District. The victim has been identified as 35-year-old Laloo Kachhi. According to available information, Abdullah Khoso and other men from the Muslim community barged into Laloo’s house on December 25. The mob abducted Laloo’s married sister Lali.

In November, Khoso had taken Lali to her home and confined her there. At that time, Laloo had filed a police complaint of abduction. The latest abduction attempt by Khoso and his accomplices cost Laloo his life. He tried to fight off Khoso and his men who beat him up severely leading to his death on January 1.

After beating up Laloo, Lali was taken away by Abdullah and her whereabouts are not yet known. Sindhi activists and journalists shared a video of an injured Laloo. He is survived by his wife and four children.

“Journalist Veengas posted a video of Laloo’s aggrieved parents saying that no police case was registered for two days despite their complaints. Others shared pictures of Laloo’s mother holding a placard asking for justice for her son, sitting outside Nabisar Road Police Station in the cold. An activist later posted that a case for murder and abduction was finally filed on 3 January at Nabisar Road Police Station”, says SwarajyaMag.
