Exorcism: hurt woman recovered

MIRPURKHAS, Dec 22: Kot Ghulam Mohammad police on Monday recovered the woman injured during ‘exorcism’ from Qadir Bux Behrani village and got her medical examination done at the Taluka Hospital.

Sakina, wife of Basheer alias Mir Khan and Fatima, widow of Ghulam Nabi were tortured to death while Nazeeran, wife of Mureed Behrani was seriously injured by a fake spiritual healer on the pretext of exorcism some few days ago.

Ms Nazeran was secretly being treated by an unknown doctor as villagers did not produce her before police after a double murder case was registered against the spiritual healer and others.

Investigation Officer Ghulam Haider Kanyo told reporters that torture marks were found on the body of Ms Nazeeran during medical examination.

Reports said that the civil judge and judicial magistrate of Kot Ghulam Mohammad ordered exhumation and post-mortem of the bodies of Sakina and Fatima on Tuesday in the presence of concerned judicial magistrate.
