After accusations of cruelly abusing a 14-year-old domestic servant in the federal capital, Judge Asim Hafeez’s wife has prompted Sajal Aly, a renowned actor in Pakistan, to make a sincere appeal. Aly urged to stop torturing children and forcing them to perform labor.
‘work together to protect children: Please stop tormenting young children and forcing them to work or perform labour for the love of God. It is untrue. Labouring children is wrong. According to the Angan actor, it is forbidden.
She also exhorted people to report any instances of child abuse or child labour that they observed.
“Notice and report if you see a young child being mistreated or working at someone’s house or outside.” Immediately. Inform the local authorities about it.
The Sinf-e-Ahan actress continued by saying that people have to band together to put pressure on the government and safeguard youngsters.
“This is too young for them to be working. They should be studying and playing at this age, she remarked.
Senior actor Nadia Jamil posted Sajal’s video message along with a strongly worded statement condemning the exploitation and abuse of minors.
“We lack awareness of whether a child is being kept as a servant/slave in a house, making it impossible to know if the child is okay or receiving an education,” Nadia stated on her official Twitter account.
“You and I are both aware of the reality. Frequently, people force these little ones to carry rich people’s kids, clean their homes, and perform other menial tasks.
“Protecting Children’s Rights: Addressing Abuse and Ensuring Access to Education”
They are hungry, beaten, and denied access to school! Their constitutional and religious rights both include the right to an education.
“Remember, it is not the responsibility of helpless children to reduce poverty. It is wrong to rob someone of their childhood. Too many of our kids endure pain. There are too many.
Let’s all contribute to finding a solution. Please. Please speak up and alert authorities to anyone using youngsters as labour.
She also praised Sajal for having a keen sense of civic duty.
An additional report that a judge’s wife had brutally tortured a 14-year-old domestic worker surfaced earlier this week. Families of the victim filed a complaint against the employers, who refuted the allegations.
