“The girl went out at 7pm on Wednesday to buy candy from a nearby shop when she was abducted,” a relative of the victim told reporters. Three hours later some passers-by spotted the girl in an unconscious state in Railway Colony, where was lying in the dark and informed the police. She was taken to hospital for treatment where doctors asked the relatives to move her to Quetta instead because of her critical wounds. She was constantly bleeding, said doctors.
“The culprit is identified as Sunny Masih. The Hindu community observed a shutter-down strike in Sibi on Thursday against the incident and held protest demonstrations, demanding the immediate arrest of the accused.
Protesters organised a procession and marched to Sibi city. “The police should protect the life and property of people. Criminals need to be severely punished for this brutality,” said one of the protesters.

Many girls aged from 5 to six have raped in different parts of the country but we never read a headline saying for example 6 year old Muslim girl r-aped in Lahore???
@Libra: you are true pakistani and showed racist and communal face of pakistan.
@Libra Minority committed crime against minority. What usually roaring Human Rights activists now shall say?
The Human Rights commission will say that the main problem with pakistan is posters with bird size brains!
Whoever choosed the title using unnecssary,sensational word Hindu in this case should be fired from job.A child is a child irrespective of religion.
I feel so ashamed to be a Pakistani-American citizen to read this article, why in the world we need to mention someone’s faith in any news, especially when we are dealing with such a heinous crime against a minor. Shame on Express Tribune.
Why Tribune mentioning religion of girl, rape is rape. Shame on Tribune
@Indian: Didn't Tribune bring religion "in these kind of cases?" Shame on Tribune.
Why must you highlight "Hindu"? Rape is highly condemnable and utterly disgusting regardless of cast, creed, religion or ethnic identity.
