She claims she converted of her own free will, after being kidnapped. What would have happened to her if she hadn’t said that?
“Faisalabad: another Christian girl kidnapped and converted to Islam (VIDEO),” by Shafique Khokhar, AsiaNews, August 5, 2021:
Faisalabad (AsiaNews) – Another Christian girl has been kidnapped and converted to Islam in Pakistan.
Speaking to AsiaNews, Chashman’s father, Gulzar Masih, said that on 28 July, he had gone to her school to pick her up; not finding her, he had immediately gone to the police to report the disappearance of the 14-year-old.
A few days later, the kidnappers sent the family a video and documents in which the girl claims to have converted of her own free will.
Gulzar, a rickshaw driver by profession, went back to the police station to get some answers, to no avail.
The story came to light only after Lala Robin Daniel, a Faisalabad-based human rights activist, got involved. “Punjab authorities should do their job to free girls who are kidnapped,” he said.
Daniel called for legal action against the kidnappers. “As long as kidnappings continue undisturbed, girls and their families will feel unsafe.”
Muhammad Ijaz Qadri, district president of the Sunni Tehreek organisation, released a letter certifying Chashman’s conversion to Islam, whose “Islamic name from now on will be Aisha Bibi”.
Sunni Tehreek is part of the Barelvi revivalist movement, which aims to preserve Islam in the Indian subcontinent and to which 60 per cent of Pakistani Muslims adhere….

Chances are that she was told that if she didn’t declare that she had ‘voluntarily’ converted to islam, her family members would be targeted for murder. Thus one more non-muslim girl flushed down into the toilet that’s islam. She sure has a bright future in front of her once her ‘husband’ gets tired of her, divorces her and leaves her and her future kid(s) on the street
At this point, I’m all for the Taliban overrunning Pakistan as well, just like they did Afghanistan
mortimer says
Islam is the most misogynistic religion.
Mohammed said, ‘Marry one (out of four wives) for the religion.’ That means Muslims should forcibly convert one woman to Islam.
b.a. freeman says
the only bad part of the taliban taking of pakistan is that they would get nukes. wait … the mullahs in iran, although the “wrong” flavor of islam, already have, or nearly have, nukes, and WILL be using them. oh, well, i guess getting nuked by the wrong flavor of islamic a**holes won’t hurt as much as getting nuked by the RIGHT flavor of islamic a**holes.
Infidel says
A sane US government should conduct a raid on Chagai or wherever they have their nukes, and drop a few MOABs to obliterate them. Oh, and destroy Pakistan’s air force while they are at it. Then the Taliban can take over, and it wouldn’t make a difference
Oh, what was I thinking? It’s Biden and his pro-islamic handlers in the White House! Well, never mind!

Pakistan being taken over by the Taliban would not actually be an improvement.
Infidel says
It wouldn’t make a difference, except that it might make the US and other Western countries more willing to recognize Pakistan as an enemy, rather than even a neutral state, let alone an ally
gravenimage says
That might be true–although many in the west have tried to consider the Taliban peaceful and rational actors…

Pakistan: Another Christian girl kidnapped and converted to Islam
She claims she converted of her own free will, after being kidnapped. What would have happened to her if she hadn’t said that?
………………….
As Infidel notes, most commonly the kidnappers threaten to murder the girl’s family if she doesn’t comply.
God, I hate Islam.
And note–the official age of marriage in Pakistan is 16 for girls–so her kidnappers shouold at least have been stopped on this basis–but they won’t be.
Infidel says
I wonder how they got away w/ that: shouldn’t the minimum marriage age be 9 or 6, as per shariah law?

Infidel, I think Pakistan just wants to look civilized on paper. This is not uncommon. Officially, the percentage of girls married off underage is 20%–I’m sure actual numbers are much higher.

”Another Christian girl has been kidnapped and converted to Islam in Pakistan.”
Allah wills it, say the muslims. God allows it, lament the Christians. Not a recipe for change anytime soon.

All Christians and other Infidels in Pakistan should flee to India, which has offered them asylum.
