(Pakistan)–Here’s an update on a story of a 14-year-old Christian girl who was kidnapped in Pakistan. According to Voice of the Martyrs, Naira Nadia was kidnapped because she was sharing her faith with her Muslim friends. A recent letter from her mother suggests a powerful Muslim, Maqsood Ahmed Sheikh is still holding the young girl. To cover up the crime, Sheikh sent a certificate to the girl’s family claiming she had converted, which is illegal for a minor. Police are ignoring the family’s request for justice.
