Man lost 5 daughters in gambling bet in Pakistan
By Farzana Shah
November 23
Once again women fall victim to male chauvinism in Pakistan when a man sold his innocent small daughters as an item for gambling in Sindh Province of Pakistan.
A man Dhani Bakhsh in Qambar area of Shahdadkot Larkana (Sindh) put his five daughters namely Tabasum (3-years-old), Rashda (4-year-old), Rubina (10-year-old), Shahbana(8-year-old), and Kanwal (7-year-old) on gambling bet against Rs20,000, Rs55,000, Rs30,000, Rs32,000 and Rs40,000 respectively.
The man lost the five innocent small girls in gambling at different points and also reportedly wed Rubina and Shabana to his gambler fellows on the condition that the small girls will remain at home until attain puberty.
Few days back the accused Dhani Bakhsh once again tried to sell his three-year-old Tabasum for gambling however his wife, Tajal resisted and tried to hold back her daughter upon which the accused attacked Tajal with an axe and injured her badly. He later divorced her and fled the scene.
The uncle of the unfortunate girls who is brother of the Ms Tajal has registered a case with police against brother-in-law, Dhani Bakhsh Khaskehli and his seven brothers. The police have arrested two accused in the case however the prime accused Dhani Bakhsh has managed his escape. The local police chief has expressed ignorance about the incident of sale of girls for gambling however he said if they want any protection police will provide them.
On the other hand the mother of the girls Tajal held a press conference at Larkana Press Club and accused the police of non-cooperation.
She blamed that Police was not supporting her neither interested in arresting her accused husband.
Women in many parts of Pakistan subjected to violence, discrimination and other criminal acts though the government and civil society organisations are working for protection of women rights but violation is still continued.
