Body of two-year-old girl found outside house in Mardan: police

The body of a two-year-old girl was found outside her house on Friday in Mardan’s Garhi Kapura, according to the police.

Her family said she had been missing for three days. “She had gone out to play but never came back home,” her father Constable Laiq Zada said.

The family had registered a missing persons complaint and were looking for her.

“We have formed a joint investigation team which will look into the case and investigate it thoroughly,” DPO Sajjad Khan said. The girl’s body has been shifted to the RHC Hospital.

Her uncle, however, claimed that the doctors on duty refused to conduct a post-mortem examination of the two-year-old after which the police had to intervene.

According to the police, the cause of death will be revealed after the post-mortem reports come out.

Her entire immediate family was wiped out in an air strike by a Saudi-led coalition that backs Yemen’s government, using an explosive device Amnesty International says was made in the US. Images of Buthaina’s rescue and a picture of her swollen and bruised at a hospital trying to force open one of her eyes with her fingers were beamed worldwide. That international fame saw her become something of a propaganda pawn in the war between Yemen’s Iran-backed Huthi rebels and Saudi media. “I was in my mother’s room with my father, sisters, brother and uncle, the first missile hit, and my father went to get us sugar to get over the shock, but then the second missile hit, and then the third,” she says. “And then the house fell,” adds the little girl, who says she is eight.
