‘Humanitarian nightmare’: Pakistan condemns alleged rape of three-year-old in Kashmir

SRINAGAR, (PTK): Pakistan on Monday condemned the alleged rape of a three-year-old girl in Bandipora and described it as a “humanitarian nightmare”. The alleged rape of the child in Sumbal on May 8 led to protests and violent clashes with security personnel in the area over the last few days.

Pakistan’s Foreign Office spokesperson Mohammad Faisal tweeted that the “horrific” rape is “another brutal reminder of humanitarian nightmare in IOK [Jammu and Kashmir]”. “Fresh reports of pellet gun firing on protestors, yet another reflection of continued Indian atrocities,” he said.
