Alina Amir joins ‘Justice for Aizal’ protest, stands with grieving mother
Pakistani digital creator Alina Amir has stepped forward in support of the grieving family of 18 month old Aizal Ali, joining a protest and making an emotional appeal for justice. Speaking to the media with a visibly trembling voice, Amir called on the Punjab government and Chief Minister Punjab to ensure that those responsible are held accountable and face appropriate punishment.
A viral video from the demonstration shows Amir addressing the media and urging authorities to take the matter seriously. She questioned the argument that the accused was unaware of his actions, stressing that accountability is essential to prevent similar incidents in the future.
Amir said that if someone deliberately commits such an act, they should understand that there will be consequences. She also expressed solidarity with Aizal’s mother, assuring the grieving family that she stands with them in their pursuit of justice.
The demonstration was organized by Aizal’s family and brought together citizens, activists and social media personalities who called for a transparent investigation and swift legal action. Protesters carried placards and raised their voices for stronger measures to protect children from violence and abuse.
The case revolves around 18 month old Aizal Ali, who was reportedly taken from her home in Karachi’s Qayyumabad area by a 17 year old relative, identified in police and family accounts as Abdul Manan. According to the reports, the toddler was taken under the pretext of buying her treats. When she was brought back, she was reportedly found in a critical and unresponsive condition and was rushed to a hospital, where she tragically died before arrival.
The case has sparked widespread outrage and renewed concerns over child safety, accountability and the effectiveness of the justice system. Amir’s participation has further amplified the family’s demand for answers and meaningful legal action.
Her appearance at the protest was also welcomed by social media users, many of whom praised the influencer for using her public platform to stand beside a grieving family and speak out on a sensitive social issue. Some commenters also urged political and law-enforcement authorities to ensure that cases involving children receive immediate attention and that justice is delivered without unnecessary delays.
