4-year-old girl facing death in Karo Kari act in Jacobabad

October 22, 2022 04:23 PM


A little four-year-old girl is facing death after her uncle crassly accused her of Karo Kari in Thul, Jacobabad, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Saturday.

Sources informed that Arif Banglani, the maternal uncle of Fatima (4), outrageously accused the child of Karo Kari in the limits of C Section police station in Tehsil Thul. 

The girl’s father, Hazar Khan, protested the accusation and took the matter to the influential people of the area. But they are not paying heed to his requests. The poor father alleged that Banglani wanted to kill his daughter in the Karo Kari act. 

He said that police did not take any action despite he went to them in order to save his daughter’s life. 

He requested the higher authorities to take notice of the incident and intervene to save little girl’s life. 

The karo-kari act is usually committed against women who are thought to have brought dishonour to their family by engaging in illicit pre-marital or extra-marital relations. In order to restore this honour, a male family member must kill the female in question. The practice is still rampant in the backward areas of the country.
