Pakistani court revives case over abduction of Christian girl
Original: Pakistani court revives case against Muslim man accused of abducting young Christian girl
A Pakistani court has revived the case against a Muslim man accused of abducting a young Christian girl, reopening proceedings that had stalled. The case highlights ongoing concerns among Pakistan's Christian minority about forced conversions and forced marriages of underage girls, and the difficulty victims' families face in pursuing justice through the courts. Rights advocates say the ruling will be watched closely as a test of whether the judiciary will protect religious minorities.
Why now: It touches on the sensitive and recurring issue of forced conversions of Christian girls in Pakistan, drawing attention from religious freedom and rights advocates.
