The boy was strangled to death. He had been sexually harassed before, the station house officer said. The two have been arrested. One of them stated that the accused has pleaded guilty.

There are also marks of torture on the boy’s body. This is the second such case in the region in the past few weeks, said Zubair Maher of the Child Protection Authority. A few days ago a girl from a Hindu community went missing from Saleh Path province in Sukkur district. The police had announced a reward of Rs 25 lakh for her arrest. But it did not bear fruit, Maher said.

Many incidents of atrocities are being reported on Hindus and other minorities in Pakistan.
