Shocking revelations have emerged from the Palangzai area of North Waziristan regarding the systematic sexual exploitation of innocent children by the banned outfit Fitnah-al-Khawarij.
The horrific abuse came to light after security forces successfully rescued a minor boy from the custody of the terrorists during a recent targeted operation by the Pakistan Army.
The rescued child, identified as Ikramullah, courageously exposed the depravity of the outfit, detailing how he was subjected to continuous sexual abuse following the death of his father. According to the victim, members of Fitna al-Khawarij forcibly moved him to their operational base in Manzar Khel, where he was repeatedly assaulted. He disclosed that three to four other young children were also kept captive at the center and subjected to similar horrific treatment, adding that the majority of the abusers at the facility were of Afghan nationality.
Ikramullah further revealed that he was later moved to another outpost in Palangzai, where the abuse continued unabated inside a center established within a local mosque.
The minor was subjected to multiple assaults by several terrorists before being recovered safely during a timely rescue operation conducted by the military.
Reacting to the disturbing revelations, social experts have strongly condemned the khawarij’s actions, terming the sexual exploitation of children and the misuse of sacred spaces like mosques as an utterly abhorrent act. Experts emphasized that the desecration of religious sites has deeply pained the Muslim community and asserted that an entity involved in the massacre of civilians and the systematic abuse of children deserves no leniency under the law.
