Sindh [Pakistan]21 April (ANI): As women in Pakistan continue to bear the brunt of forced marriages and conversions, some have also managed to escape, bringing such incidents to light.
A woman named Guddi Kohli was forced into marriage and later converted to her religion in Pakistan. However, according to sources, the woman had escaped from confinement or a private prison and had sought refuge in the community, Pakistani vernacular media reported.
“One night a year ago, local influential people abducted her, forcibly converted her religion in Mirpur Khas and was later forcibly married to Ruston Junejo,” she said in an interview with the media.
The Special Coordinator for Human Rights reported the situation to the local police, who subsequently arrested the woman and drove her to Marti.
After escaping from a private prison in Harpal, near Cherhar, the married woman fled to Jangil, where she died in Mingora, according to local Pakistani media. The members of the tribe found refuge.
The woman said she had been held by Rustom in Harpar for a year and that she was in chains.
“The media said that she escaped Junejo’s detention at the first opportunity and sought asylum in Jhanjier village,” she told local media.
She told the media that Rustom had humiliated and abused her for a year while continuing to terrorize her, according to Sindh Express, a Pakistani dialect outlet. She told the media that her mother often warned her not to challenge powerful people.
She said her religion was forced to change and that powerful people ruined her life. She argued that taking action against Rustom would bring her justice.
Earlier, BJP leader Sumitra Manjani rushed to Jangil as soon as he learned of the incident, met the injured woman (Gudi Kohli), and recorded all the information. She assured the woman that justice would be served. (Arnie)
