Those cruel people started beating me with hot iron pipe. While Pervaiz and Kala were beaten with sticks, pipe and bats. They kicked us very brutally and cruelly." Kashif told SLMP team "when they were beating Hanifan bibi, they were continuously saying that she did not bring Christian girls so this was her punishment. We would implicate you in the case of stealing and you would be sent to jail. Sometimes, they said, "If you would ask your family members to arrange for 4 hundred thousand rupees, then you would get rid of this torture". Kashif told (weeping bitterly) "they put red chilies on the wooden stick and inserted in the anus." "I got severe injuries on my sex organs."
