Two days ago, a man raped a 10-year-old girl in Karachi’s Essa Nagri, her mother told a local news outlet. The girl was raped by her teacher’s brother at the tuition center she attended. In protest, an angry mob attacked the suspect’s residence, in the process of which they blocked the main road leading to a police intervention. The report claimed that the girl’s father had asked for an investigation against the teacher, provided that the crime took place at his residence. The police have registered a case and arrested the suspect.

In another tweet, while reacting to the news of Germany busting international child pornography site containing 400,000 subscribers, Jamil added, “What a sick world we live in. If only we could also crackdown child prostitution rings in Pakistan.” She went on to add, “We should be swooping on them like eagles. @MukarramKaleem tried exposing them in a show. But we need huge movements to get the @GovtofPakistan to act firmly and consistently.”
