ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN (BosNewsLife) — Two Christian teenage girls were free Saturday, January 17, as they were rescued after being kidnapped, sold to other men as sex slaves, and forced into Islam by two radical Muslims, Christian rights investigators said.

The Washington based human rights group, International Christian Concern (ICC) said the two teenage girls, Parcisha, 18, and Sanam,14, were kidnapped in November after a neighbor, identified as Muhammad Irfan, seduced them into believing he would offer training in Cosmetology and beauty shop jobs.

However there was concern Saturday, January 17, that the case would not be properly investigated as the girl’s father, Pastor Alam, has reported that his son-in-law, Stian AKram Khokhar, is also missing.  “The Pastor is afraid that Irfan” and another man, identified as Muhammed Mehboob, are holding his son-in-law as a bargaining chip “to threaten him” not to pursue he case, ICC said.  Police officials were not immediately available for comment.  The location of the incident was not released, apparently for security reasons.

The troubles began when Parcisha, the oldest of seven children, convinced her father, pastor Sharif Alam, to allow them to go so they could learn a trade and be able to help support her impoverished family, ICC recalled.

DRINKS DRUGGED

Their neighbor Irfan and an another individual, identified as Muhammed Mehboob, allegedly picked up the girls up November 30, driving them instead for thirty minutes to get drinks.

The drinks were allegedly drugged and when the girls woke up they were reportedly 500 miles (800 kilometers) away from their home and locked in a small hotel room.

“By gunpoint the girls were threatened that if they made any noise or tried to escape they would be killed and so would all of their family. That night both girls were raped by these two men repeatedly,” ICC said.

The next day the two girls were driven to the brother in law of Mehoobs, where the men repeatedly raped the girls over several days and forced the girls to accept Islamic and to convert to Islam, according to rights investigators. “Parcisha and Sanam were both given Muslim names and were told that if they cooperated they would be released soon,” ICC said.

LAWYERS RAPE

The girls were also taken to the law offices of Nayer-Zia-Ul-Din and Kokab-Sahab-Ul-Din who allegedly told the girls they would ensure they would be able to reside in a government backed shelter for women.

The attorneys also had the girls sign a blank piece of paper and told them the following day they would be represented in court and set free, ICC said in a statement monitored by BosNewsLife.

They initially consoled the girls and proposed them to they stay the night in their home the rest of their families. However the girls arrived to an empty apartment where they were two separate rooms.

That night Sanam awoke and heard her sister “crying and yelling for help” as  the two lawyers allegedly raped her. “Sanam ran out of the room, looking for a weapon to defend herself, and found instead a cell phone, which she used to dial the emergency response number. Soon, police arrived and took the two lawyers into custody.”

GIRLS RESCUED

Pacisha was immediately taken to the hospital and Sanam to a police station where she contacted her father “who immediately came to the daughters and rescued them,” ICC added.

He also contacted a Christian legal group, reportedly adding to anger of Muslims in the neighborhood. On December 31, dozens of angry Muslims apparently gathered outside the family home, demanding that the father returns his daughters to Muslim authorities.

The father called police, “but not fast enough as the angry mob got hold of the pastor’s son, Sheraz. and beat him severely,” ICC said.

The organization said it had urged its supporters to “pray for Parcisha and Sanam that all their wounds will be healed and that their faith and belief in God will be restored.”

It said it had asked supporters to also, “Pray for protection and peace over this family whom has suffered greatly.” It comes amid nounting international concern over case of kidnapping and sexual abuse of Christian girls and women in Pakistan, a predominantly Muslim nation

  1. I don’t know who else looks at this forum but Our GOD will Protect, What can be said for the people in authority in pakistan, things would be different if these were Muslim. Do these people not have childrens of their own. Very Sick and Sad Pakistanis

  2. its very sad incident GOD bless them.and may the culprits get thier punishment in this world n here after.
    i think those people were muslim just by thier names they were animals beasts sons of devils indact

  3. As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part be regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens. This is the case in:
    United States — Muslim 0.6%
    Australia — Muslim 1.5%
    Canada — Muslim 1.9%
    China — Muslim 1.8%
    Italy — Muslim 1.5%
    Norway — Muslim 1.8%
    At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and
    among street gangs. This is happening in:
    Denmark — Muslim 2%
    Germany — Muslim 3.7%
    United Kingdom — Muslim 2.7%
    Spain — Muslim 4%
    Thailand — Muslim 4.6%
    From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to
    their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the
    introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby
    securing food preparation jobs for Muslims.
    They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves — along with threats for failure to comply.
    This is occurring in:
    France — Muslim 8%
    Philippines — Muslim 5%
    Sweden — Muslim 5%
    Switzerland — Muslim 4.3%
    The Netherlands — Muslim 5.5%
    Trinidad & Tobago — Muslim 5.8%
    At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow
    them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic
    Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the
    entire world.
    When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase
    lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris ,
    we are already seeing car-burnings.
    Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and
    threats, such as in Amsterdam , with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and
    films about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim
    sections, in:
    Guyana — Muslim 10%
    India — Muslim 13.4%
    Israel — Muslim 16%
    Kenya — Muslim 10%
    Russia — Muslim 15%
    After reaching 20% , nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:
    Ethiopia — Muslim 32.8%
    At 40% , nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:
    Bosnia — Muslim 40%
    Chad — Muslim 53.1%
    Lebanon — Muslim 59.7%
    From 60% , nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers
    of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic
    ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya,
    the tax placed on infidels, such as in:
    Albania — Muslim 70%
    Malaysia — Muslim 60.4%
    Qatar — Muslim 77.5%
    Sudan — Muslim 70%*
    After 80% , expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and in some ways is on-going in:
    Bangladesh — Muslim 83%
    Egypt — Muslim 90%
    Gaza — Muslim 98.7%
    Indonesia — Muslim 86.1%
    Iran — Muslim 98%
    Iraq — Muslim 97%
    Jordan — Muslim 92%
    Morocco — Muslim 98.7%
    Pakistan — Muslim 97%
    Palestine — Muslim 99%
    Syria — Muslim 90%
    Tajikistan — Muslim 90%
    Turkey — Muslim 99.8%
    United Arab Emirates — Muslim 96%
    100% will usher in the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ — the Islamic House of Peace. Here there’s supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in:
    Afghanistan — Muslim 100%
    Saudi Arabia — Muslim 100%
    Somalia — Muslim 100%
    Yemen — Muslim 100%
    Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states the
    most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood
    lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons.
