Radical Islamic clerics in Pakistan are up in arms after a minor Hindu girl Mehak Kumari
renounced Islam. She says she had not accepted Islam of her own free will but was forced to do so and also lie about it. While the cases of forceful conversions have always existed in Pakistan, a significant spike has been registered lately. Her subsequent kidnapping and forced conversion invited widespread protests and condemnation by the minority Hindu community in Pakistan which said that a nexus between government officials and Islamic clerics was acting behind forced conversions which were happening all over the country. The court has not announced any verdict and we have been given a time frame of eleven days, said the counsel adding that the next hearing is on February 18.
