A six years old minor girl from the Dalit (untouchable) and student of class 1, Kumari Wijenti Meghwar was raped in Umerkot district of Sindh province, a city at the Indian border where a sizable population from the Hindu religion lives.
According to a statement filed by Asian Human Rights Commission, the rapist belongs to a political party with close connection with the military.
The victim was found in a pool of blood and could not move when located near the house of former town council chairman of Pithoro.
Victim's father, Manohar Meghwar says that his daughter was playing outside the house when she was abducted.
Victim was brought to the district hospital where there was no doctor to attend to her and she was then taken to the civil hospital Mirpurkhas district, 60 kilometers away from her home where she remains in critical condition.
Despite the fact that the police know the identity of the rapist they have failed to arrest him.
The police are not taking any action, according to Human Rights Asia, because they know that if they take action against the perpetrator the strong Muslim fundamentalists groups will come out on the street in favor of perpetrator.
The Police fear that even if arrested, the authorities will exert pressure for the release of the accused person to appease the Muslim fundamentalist groups.
These groups are openly operating in the Hindu areas to forcibly convert them to Islam but authorities cannot apprehend them because of government policies.
