| DB seeks report on Rohingya minor sold in Kashmir | | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, May 22: A Division Bench of state high court directed the state government to file status report with regards to Parveena, a Rohingya minor from Myanmar, who was sold for Rs 80,000 to a man in Kashmir after she was brought to Delhi following her alleged kidnapping in her native country.
Acting Chief Justice Aloke Aradhe and Justice M K Hanjura asked additional advocate general B A Dar to file the status report in terms of previous order. The state counsel had submitted that, given the serious nature of allegations concerning child abuse as also child trafficking, an immediate action will be taken against the accused of alleged commission of offence.
He had submitted that inquiry will be taken up to its logical end. Court in view of his statement on Monday directed him to file the report by next date indicating as to what action has been taken against the accused.
One Parveen (15) was kidnapped by unknown person from Myanmar in June 2015 and thereafter was forcibly married in Kashmir. It is after her maternal uncle filed the petition before high court and the victim has been traced and after a due process of law handed over to her uncle.
Parveen's maternal uncle, Muhammad Firoz of Maungdaw in Rakian district of Myanmar who lives as refugee in Delhi, has approached the High Court here saying the minor was kidnapped after riots of July 2015 in Mayanmar and taken to Bangladesh illegally. "She was trafficked to India and finally sold to a man from Saliya in Anantnag district for Rs 80,000," he said in the petition.
Parents of the minor in Myanmar had moved from pillar to post to trace her out but could not find any lead.
"The family had tried to lodge a missing report but for hostile situation against Rohinga community it was dumped," says the petition.
It was in December 2015 that the minor made a call to her parents in Myanmar telling them she was sold to a man in Kashmir and forcibly made to marry him. |
