Somia joined the torture case probe and stated that she and her husband provided Rs60,000 to Rizwana’s parents.
ISALAMABAD: The primary suspect in the domestic worker torture case has cooperated with the investigation and refuted all allegations of torture against her.
According to the sources, Somia Asim, the wife of the administrative officer at the Islamabad Judicial Academy, rejects the allegations against her.
She asserts that the teenage Rizwana was never a domestic worker in their household.
Somia claims that she and her husband have given Rs60,000 to Rizwana’s parents to help them.
The money was sent from her husband’s mobile account, according to Somia’s statement.
Furthermore, the woman denies the allegations of torturing Rizwana and insists that the girl’s suffering was due to a skin allergy.
“We don’t know how an allergy developed on the girl’s head,” she said.
Additionally, she asserted that Rizwana’s family had children, and she and her husband attempted to assist them by accommodating one of the girls.
Somia stated that they had not seen the wound on Rizwana’s head, and they handed the girl over to her parents at Chungi No 26 in Islamabad.
The special JIT, responsible for investigating the Rizwana torture case, has also requested a written response from the suspect Somia.
Currently, she has obtained interim bail in the case.
Hiroshima Commemorates A Bomb Anniversary, Condemns Nuclear Deterrence As ‘Folly’
Meanwhile, as the world commemorates the victims of the world’s first nuclear attack, Russia has raised the spectre of using nuclear weapons in its war with Ukraine.
At the same time, the biopic Oppenheimer, which chronicles the creation of the atomic bomb, has become a box-office hit in the United States. However, critics have pointed out that the film largely ignores the destruction caused by the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which occurred three days later on August 9, 1945.
