A minor girl aged 7, was recovered from a house in Gujranwala, after being severely tortured and bruised by the owner.

Fazeelat, who had been working in the house situated in Satellite Town for the past three years, was recovered by the Child Protection Bureau after neighbours complained that she was being tortured in the house.

The owner, who is called Qadir, has been held and a FIR has been registered against him under the child protection and labour law.

Apart from being tortured on a regular basis, Fazeelat was also prevented from contacting her parents, who had no idea that she was subject to such mistreatment.
