Mirpur Khas (Pakistan), Apr. 22 (ANI): A case has been registered against an 80-year-old Pakistani man for allegedly kidnapping, forcibly marrying and keeping a 12-year-old girl in illegal confinement for a year.

Addressing a press conference, Shabana's father Sabir Shaikh said that he, along with his family, had gone to the house of his brother Abdullah Shaikh in Karachi last year.

The apprehended accused, Rasool, and his brother Abdul Malik who are also his relatives kidnapped his daughter, he added.

Shaikh lodged a non-cognizable report against Rasool at Tando Adam police station. He said that police did not register his FIR while on the registration of a case of robbery against the accused, the Frontier Post reports.

The police carried out raid in Panno Aqil and apprehended accused Rasool.
