Militants force young girl to wear suicide vest
 Today's dispatch from the Depths of Depravity...[Dawn]  An eight-year-old Pak girl was kidnapped by gun-hung tough guys who forced her to wear a boom jacket to attack security forces, police said on Monday.Police produced the girl, identified as Sohana Javaid, before a news conference broadcast on Pak television channels. The girl recalled how she was kidnapped in her hometown of Beautiful Downtown Peshawar by two women and a man who pulled up in a car. "They put a handkerchief on my mouth and I fell unconscious. They took me to some place. They gave me some biscuits to eat and I again fell unconscious," Sohana said in a video, according to a voice over translation on the tape. Forced to wear a boom jacket, she was transported to a security check post in a small town in the Lower Dir district in the northwest. "I moved towards the check post but I started shouting and was taken into custody," said Sohana. There was no way to independently verify the story. Pak authorities, who are facing a stubborn Taliban insurgency, have in the past produced would-be jacket wallahs in front of television cameras. But they have been men or boys.
