Sunita Masih, a Christian girl from Faisalabad, aged just 14 has allegedly been gang raped. She was asked to recite the Kalma. When she refused her hair was shaved off. So, lots of activism for the innocents elsewhere, great but how about raising our voices here too? #minorities

On the other hand, police officials in Faisalabad rejected the news regarding the rap and denied that any such incident took place in the city.
Faisalabad CPO Mohammad Sohail Chaudhry in a statement said, “Fake news is circulating on social media platforms that a girl has been raped and forced to convert to Islam in Faisalabad.”
He said “This was verified and it was found out that facts are contrary and the incident is related to Sukkur District,” he said in a statement, adding that SSP Sukkur Irfan Samoo had also corroborated it.
