Pakistani Christian girl kidn*pped and forced to marry a muslim men seeks asylum in UK.Maira Shahbaz was a 14 year old Christian girl who was kidn*pped and forced to convert to Islam.It took place in Pakistan, when Maira was bundled into a car at gunpoint by three muslim men.She was filmed and photographed being gang ra*ed and was then forced to convert to Islam and marry her kidn*pper Mohamad Nakash Tariq who was 45 years old and already married with two children.Her case went to court and she was placed in a women’s shelter, before the High Court ruled out that she should be returned back to her kidn*pper Mohamad because she had supposedly embraced Islam.“With this ruling, no Christian girl in Pakistan is safe,” said by a Pakistani Christian advocate.She was forcefully sent back to his home but managed to escape four months later but after receiving a series of de*th threats, both her and her family were forced to go into hiding.Speaking with the police at the time, she said her abd*ctors had “threatened to mu*der her whole family” and will share pictures and videos that show her being ra*ed.Maira told the police that she hadn’t converted from Christianity, she was instead forced to sign blank documents, with the constant threat of viol*nce and public humiliation.Her captor later accused her of apostasy, a crime punishable with de*th in Muslim-majority country.He also requested the arrest of the victim’s mother, her uncles, and a friend of the family, claiming that they had kidn*pped the girl and taken her away from his home.A petition signed by over 12,000 people calling for asylum to be granted to the girl and her family in UK, on the grounds that their lives are in danger.A judge meanwhile ruled that a Somalian double ra*ist must be allowed to stay in the UK on human-rights grounds because he would face ‘degrading’ treatment in his home country.The sad reality when asylum system in many instances, safeguards criminals while remaining inflexible to the needs of innocent civilians fleeing danger.The current system fails asylum seekers and British society. The government must reform the asylum system so that it prioritises the most vulnerable.Kidnapping of minority children are a common place occurrences in Pakistan.The Associated Press estimated that approximately 1,000 Christian and Hindu young girls and other minorities across Pakistan are abd*cted from their families and forced to convert to Islam annually.Christians constitute approximately two percent of the Pakistani population but face increasing viol*nce, discrimination and intolerance in the majority conservative Muslim nation.Many Christian children in Pakistan are victims of abdu*tions and forced conversions.Open Doors International, a Christian human rights organization reported, Christians in Pakistan face extreme persecution in every area of their lives, with all Christians being considered second-class citizens.It was reported that many underage girls from minority religion in Islamic or Muslim majority countries are often the victims of abdu*ction and forcibly married to their kidna*pper and later converted into islam and the victims ties with their families is completely cut off after threatening their families with de*th threats.
