According to the complaint registered by the victim’s mother, Baz Gulla, at the Parahi Pura Police Station, which states that her husband, identified as Khadim, kidnapped their six-year-old daughter upon her mother’s refusal to become a sex worker.
She said that she married him a few years ago and they had three daughters together. One of their children had also died recently.
