Islamabad: Afzal Khan, the brother of an accused boy in Kohistan girls decree, on Wednesday once again claimed all the five girls have been killed by the local jirga.
While talking to media outside the Supreme Court, Khan said that the jirga had sent 40 to 50 persons to kill him and his brothers. He added that five men of his family would be killed against the killing of five girls.
He said that Maulana Javed from Mansehra district had given a Fatwa against the five girls and two boys. “All the five girls Bazgar, Amna, Shaheen, Begum and one more has been killed by the jirga on may 30 and I have four witnesses of the killing,” Khan told reporters.
“We have life threat from commissioner Hazara and DIG Hazara,” he added. “No action is being taken against the murderers of girls.”
