Another distressing case of the contended torture of a 13- time-old maid has come to light in the G- 15 sector of the capital megacity. The police have arrested a woman grounded on allegations made by the mama of the wench.
The indicted woman, reportedly associated with an online business establishment, was presented in front of a justice and latterly transferred to Adiala Jail on judicial remand. The Tarnol police have filed charges against the indicted woman under several sections of the Pakistan Penal Code( PPC), including 328- A( atrocity to a child), 342( discipline for unlawful confinement), and 506( discipline for felonious intimidation).
The incident unfolded when Andaleeb Fatima, a wench who had been working at the indicted woman’s hearthstone for a month, showed signs of abuse on her body. Upon her mama Khalida’s appearance from Chiniot, who had come to Islamabad after Andaleeb failed to answer her phone calls, it was revealed that Andaleeb had been subordinated to physical abuse. Andaleeb reported that her employer would beat her and indeed torture her using a hot ladle.
likewise, the employer allegedly confined both Andaleeb and her mama to a room and hovered them to remain silent about the abuse. Only latterly were they allowed to leave the house, without entering any payment. Andaleeb has been taken to a sanitarium for a medical examination, and the results of the examination are pending. This incident highlights the critical need to address the mistreatment of domestic workers and insure their protection and well- being.
