Parents fear their daughter may have been kidnapped. DESIGN: SIDRAH MOIZ KHAN
PESHAWAR: A Hindu school teacher was allegedly kidnapped by unidentified people while on her way back home from school near the Pakistan Radio Colony on Saturday afternoon.
Faqir Chand, the father of the missing 25-year-old woman Sapna Rani, said his daughter is a teacher at the Peshawar Science Academy near Ayub Flour Mill on GT Road.
While talking to The Express Tribune, he said Rani went to school at around 7:45am on Saturday morning and when she did not return till 4:00pm, the family started to worry.
After trying in vain to locate her, Chand’s nephew Suraish Kumar went to the Paharipura Police Station to lodge a missing report after which ASI Sardar Ali Khan registered a case and launched investigations.
Bindya Rani, the kidnapped woman’s grief-stricken mother, said “We don’t have an enmity with anyone,” and pleaded to the government to do everything in its power to find her daughter.

@AP: India can easily absorb these people. As I said earlier at least their lives will be secure in India.
Hindus / Sikhs/ Chistians etc should leave pakistan so that muslims can live in pakistan...Let them kill each other...countries such as India, US etc should help these minorites..
My understanding is that people are already leaving...good for them..
@ VINOD "The thinking, the logic every thing is astounding". some people are not allowed to ask question if it is not benefiting them, which makes them less logical and then most of the activity is carried out on belief. but it is ok till the time you are not forcing others to belief what you yourself belief, the problem start when you force somebody to believe on your believe. and yes he is also not allowed to ask questions.
Honestly Pakistan is a wonderland. Nothing I say nothing happens there that happens in other parts of the world. The thinking, the logic every thing is astounding and a huge population id living in this world seeped in hate, killings, loot, barbaric beliefs. A wonderful gift of the British to the human beings.
She will soon appear in a black burqa surrounded by men in orange beards.
@Strive: yes. History should be ignored. I agree with you. :-)
@Rasikh: why your ego on word "Hindu"???? may I ask??? you mean all are muslims?? No hindu there?? minorities does not have any value??? is it your hypocrite??
Every one knows whats going to happen in the land where hindus,sikhs,christains r attacked at will ,there house burned down on some pretext or other.She will b forced to convert & after some months when her utility is ceased pushed in to flesh trade.Najim sethi said this in one of his programmes which is available on u tube.ET kindly publish this
Indian government should start a program whereby all remaining Hindus from Pakistan should be given the option of migrating to India. They should be welcomed with open arms by Indians. In Pakistan, their daughters will be abducted, raped and converted and their business frequently threatened for ransom. At least in India their lives will be secure.
And next we would hear that she converted to Islam willingly and got married to a Muslim.
@Rasikh: There is nothing wrong with mentioning the religion. ET did not suggest anything. You know religion could be involved that is why you are bothered by the world "Hindu'.
@Rasikh: That's because that's what she and that's the risk she is facing.she will be unsafe as a Hindu. and they may not let her unless she agrees to covert.go.No place for Hindus.they should be allowed to emigrate.
Even before the full facts have emerged, ET seems to have decided the girl was abducted because she was a Hindu. ET is expressing its opinion. This is reporting.
It seems media has inadvertently or otherwise has also helped in perpetuation of religious divide on ethnic or sectarian basis. .
Another forced and shameful conversion
@Rasikh:
Sir, what is the trick to get more recommendations?
How is it done? Is there a website that helps do it?
@water bottle
Sir my point being, the kidnapping may, or may not be, for the suggested reason.. But in absence of credible information, it is premature to suggest the religion having to do anything with the kidnapping.. ET should have waited for more information, or should have taken the pain to extract more information, in order to enable the needless (based on current information) attachment of religion to a piece of news which may or may not have religion at the bottom. Peace.
My friend's female cousin was kidnapped in Peshwar in 2011. It is a metropolis of a lawless province. . No newspaper even covered that. Was that because she was Muslim?
and pakistAn still have guts enough to cry foul over muslims discriminated in india and all over the world. Just waiting till she shows up couple of days later saying she willfully (read forcefully) converted to islam and now her name is xyz bibi.
Keep it up, Pakistan!
Police and security agencies should find the innocent lady at their earliest...else it may become another black dot on the face of Pakistan
Another feather in Pakistan's cap.
Why the need for the word "Hindu" in this news item ET, may i ask?
kidnapped or went missing? eloped or taken away?
Script is familiar. She will appear after a few days surrounded by many people and maulvis and make a statemsnt in a police station and then in front of magistrate that she has accepted Islam as per her free will and want to marry a muslim boy. Then the courts will provide protection and she will be married and sent to a muslim home. Period.
