According to a report by ARY News, the tragic event unfolded in the Bawani Chali area, where a father subjected his minor son to horrific abuse. The child was beaten with an iron rod and forced to sit on a hot griddle (tawa), leading to severe burns and injuries.
This cruel act was exposed when a video went viral on social media, showing the traumatized child showing his burn marks to a concerned neighbor. The heartbreaking footage quickly garnered attention, with many condemning the father’s actions and calling for swift justice. The brutality of the incident highlights the alarming prevalence of child abuse in society and serves as a painful reminder of the urgent need to address this issue comprehensively.
Following the viral video, the police took immediate action and arrested the accused, identified as Najibullah, after a case was registered on behalf of the state. The accused has now been transferred to the investigation police for further inquiry. The local authorities are determined to ensure that the child’s suffering does not go unpunished and that the law takes its course. While the investigation continues, the incident has raised critical questions about the protection of children and the alarming rise in cases of child torture in the region.
The child, whose identity has been withheld for his safety, has been shifted to a hospital for medical treatment. His injuries are serious, but authorities are hopeful that he will recover with proper care. This case highlights the urgent need for a more robust system to protect children from such inhumane treatment. Child abuse, in any form, is a violation of human rights and should never be tolerated. Society must unite to ensure that children are safeguarded from such cruel acts and that those responsible for such heinous crimes face appropriate punishment.
