Another Hindu woman Rajeeta Meghwar Kolhi has become a victim of Pakistan's endless cycle of kidnappings and forced conversions of minority women. Rajeeta managed to escape her abductor after being kidnapped 2 months ago but Pakistan's courts ignored her pleas to be reunited with parents. Activists highlighted double standards as Muslim girls can choose to return to parents unlike Rajeeta who was sent to a shelter. Cricketer Danish Kaneria slammed Pakistan's courts for failing to deliver justice to abducted Hindu girls. Rajeeta's case underscores the human rights crisis as hundreds of minority women face forced conversions annually. Despite global criticism, Pakistan's legal system continues to enable such religious persecution.
