ISLAMABAD: The civil society of Gilgit-Baltistan, child rights organizations, human rights commission of Pakistan, legal fraternity, journalist community and representatives of political parties gathered outside the National Press Club in Islamabad to demand immediate recovery of the 13-year-old girl child gone missing from Sultanabad village of district Gilgit.
Protestors called for transparent investigation of the matter to ensure such cases never occur again.
The child protection workers questioned the role of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Child Rights Commission in this situation as the unlawful act of child marriage was solemnized in Mansehra District of the KP province. Moreover, the accused had also applied for a transit bail at Peshawar High Court which makes it mandatory for the KP Child Rights Commission to investigate, respond and rescue the child.
A videos posted on social media by the abductors of the 13year old girl child reveal that she is married to a 17-year-old minor, who has still not obtained legal age of marriage as set in the Child Marriage Restraint Amendment Act 1929.
Furthermore, in the video the abductors are noticed forging age of the child contrary to what her original NADRA issued birth registration certificate reveals.
The Civil Society Organizations demand for the swift recovery of both children as behind these unlawful acts both of them are vulnerable to even more extreme forms of violence and exploitation.
The key demands by the speakers at the press club are:
01-Recover the child immediately and present her in front of a court of law
02-Use authentic medical and legal methods to determine the age of the child
03-Investigate the conduct of the Nikah Reader and Registrar
04-Investigate the doctor to ascertain how she was able to determine the child’s age and issue a certificate
05-Transparent investigation of the serious allegations leveled by the child’s parents against certain police officials to ensure accountabilit

Long Holidays on Eid UlAdha
Despite hyperinflation in Pakistan, citizens celebrate Eid festivities with full of zeal and zest.

It's suggested by health practitioners that citizens should avoid overeating meat and sweet dishes, keep a gape and do some physical exercise.
It has been witnessed that the highest peaks of Pakistan are getting polluted due to carelessness of the mountaineers, majority of the peaks have turned into dumping sites, Government of Pakistan should formulate strict rules, imposed heavy penalties, also fix a fee for cleanliness measures, the companies associated with adventure sports should also be directed to ensure maximum compliance.
