In the case of Dua Zehra’s early marriage, Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif’s special assistant Salman Sufi has ordered the Punjab Police to arrest Dua Zehra’s husband Zaheer Ahmed.
Analysts say that the government should have arrested the gang members that forced Dua Zahra to take such a big step.
Special Assistant to the Prime Minister Salman Sufi said in a tweet that Sindh Police has requested for Zaheer Ahmed’s arrest, the prime suspect in the Dua Zahra case.
Salman Sufi further wrote that “On the request of the Sindh Police, the Punjab Police has been ordered to trace and arrest the accused and the Child Protection Bureau will hand over the girl to the custody of the Darul Aman.”
“There will be no leniency on the abuse of boys and girls,” he said.
