When a child grows up, they are assured to have their parent’s support! The parents who teach their kids to make the first step, they teach them to eat and learn. These are the same parents their kids run to when they are hurt or need anything, be it emotional or moral. Parents are the world to their kids.

But if the same parents who we trust so much and have so much love for, turn their back on the kids?then what?  That’s when the kids start getting weak from inside.

This is not the case with kids only, an adult whose parents have left him stranded in a situation is bound to be devastated.

This 22-year-old girl felt the same. This young girl took her life in Karachi’s Punjab Colony on Thursday after her parents decided to force her into an engagement without her consent.

She chose to not live and hanged herself.

The girl’s family just moved to Punjab colony, and she was forced to get engaged to the guy her father chose for her. The girl liked someone else, the guy she be-friended in her previous residential area; Machar Colony. There’s where their love developed  and they fell for each other and wanted to get married.

But as the girl’s family got to know about this relationship, they snatched her cell-phone and rectricted her movement outside the house.

But seems like she tried contacting her lover.

Frere Station House Officer (SHO) Mohammed Ibrahim stated that as the father of the girl came back from the fishery, he heard his daughter reciting Quran in her room and didn’t intrepted her. As per usual the daughter used to make tea for her father every morning at 6am, but this Thursday she did not wake up.

Much later, after getting worried about her, the mother broke the door of the room and found her hanging from the ceilling. The girl found nothing and decided to hang herself from her own duppatta.

The Frere police found another mobile phone upon investigation, which the girl had in her possession. The girl was in contact with her lover from the time 3pm to 8pm on Wednesday.

There are so many cases of the girls losing their lives when they are forcefully asked to tie the knot. She was an adult and had all the right to choose her partner to live with. Who would the law blame now? Who should be punished?
