Kashmiri held for selling 3 daughters
2006-03-15
Police have arrested a quake refugee who allegedly sold his three daughters to two couples. Mohammad Shafique, a resident of Muzaffarabad, has been living at relief camp No 193 in Sector H-11 since November. His wife and eight children were killed in the October 8 earthquake. Sources told Daily Times that Shafique, with the connivance of camp manager Azmatullah, sold his three daughters — Sonia, 3, Ulfat, 5 and Riffat, 8 — to two couples for Rs 300,000.
3's a little young, but 5 and 8 are gettin' up there to Pashtun marryin' age...
Sources said that Shafique also gave a share of money to the camp manager and disappeared from the camp along with his two sons, Amir and Saqib.
"Let's go, boyz! We're off to gay Karachi!"
Fauzia, an official of the United Nations Fund for Children, learned of the incident. Sources said that police arrested the accused from Muzaffarabad. Acting SSP Asim Gulzar told Daily Times that DSP Jameel Hashmi was investigating the matter. However, he ruled out that the children were not sold.
