FAISALABAD: Another terrifying incident of child abuse was seen in the Civil Lines area of Faisalabad when a 12-year-old helper, Samiah was reportedly thrown out of the house of her employers.

The incident happened late on Monday night. According to the police, the locals saw the girl and rescued her, after which they informed the police and gathered outside the employer, Jawad’s house in protest.

Civil Lines police reached the site but Jawad didn’t come out of the house.
