HYDERABAD, Feb 8: The father of a seven-year-old girl, KMB, on Saturday accused the son of the Naib Nazim of the union council No15, along with another man, of subjecting his girl to repeated criminal assaults, saying that the Phulelli police have refused to register the case against them.

KMB, who had come to the local press club, along with 15 other residents of Goth Allah Dad Chand, told journalists that his daughter was kidnapped on Feb 5 from the Goth’s Imam Shah Mohalla by Gaggo, son of the Naib Nazim of the union council No15, and Raheel Siyal.

He accused them of taking his daughter to an unspecified place, where she was subjected to criminal assault.

He said that when he had approached the SHO of the Phulelli police station, he had refused to register an FIR because of his being a friend of Zulfiqar Baloch, the father of one of the accused.

KMB, along with the other residents of the Goth, staged a token hunger strike outside the press club.

The Head Moharir of the Phulelli police station, when contacted, said that case would be registered after submission of a medical report, a letter for which has already been issued.
