Kohat: The guilty of the despicable crime of killing and sexually assaulting a three-year-old in March 2021, was sentenced to life imprisonment with intense labor on Thursday.
Neither did the heavens tremble nor did the earth shake when a three-year-old was assaulted and strangled to death. Hareem Fatima went to play with her friends outside her house and never returned.
Reference:
The poor three-year-old went missing at 2 in the afternoon on March 24th, 2021. After finding no indication of his granddaughter, Farhad Hussain filed a report at Riyaz Shaheed Police station, Kohat.
Hareem was found dead in the drain the next morning, a kilometer away from her dwelling. The post-mortem reports confirmed that the little girl was strangled to death after being physically assaulted.
The Kohat police exhibited due diligence in finding the murderer of this horrendous crime. They successfully managed to obtain the CCTV footage of the nearby buildings, which led to a shocking revelation about the death of the poor child.
The CCTV footage showed that Hareem was seen with a woman who had covered herself in a veil. It was a complete shock to know that the murderer was a female who lived in their neighborhood.
Rabia, the reprobate, was arrested by the police. Upon interrogation, the accused accepted committing the dreadful crime. Rabia, daughter of Mohammad Shah, admitted that she had killed Hareem to take a revenge from Hareem’s father.
Hareem’s father was an obstacle to Rabia’s marriage to his brother. Consequently, the accused stooped down to the level that no human being in his right mind would.
The vicious murderer was thus sentenced to life imprisonment with intense labor. The accused will also pay a fine of rupees 2 lacs each to Hareem’s family.
Certainly, any punishment declared for the accused will never be enough for the crime that she committed and for the life that she took.
