Nankana Sahib (Pakistan), August 29, 2019: There is great resentment among the Sikh community here after the 19-year-old daughter of the head granthi of Gurdwara Tambu Sahib was allegedly kidnapped at gunpoint from her home by Muslim men, forcibly converted to Islam and married to a Muslim man. However, there is more to the story than meets the eye.
The affected family says they lodged a complaint with the police but no action has been taken.
According to the complaint lodged by the parents with the Nankana Sahib police, on mid night of August 27 and Agust 28 at around 2 am, some persons barged into their house and forced the girl, Jagjit Kaur, to accompany them at gunpoint.
The family says after the lodging of the FIR, the same people returned to their house and threatened that if they don’t withdraw the FIR they would have to suffer the consequences of their actions.
However, there is a twist in the tale.
According to a video which was released on August 28, Jagjit can be seen with a Muslim man and is heard saying that she left her house on her accord and embraced Islam and married the Muslim man according to her own will. Both can be heard saying ‘kabool hai’ three times in the video.
The family of Jagjit shared a video on social media in which they again say that their daughter was kidnapped and forced to change her religion and marry a Muslim man.
In the video, the brother of the girl can be seen appealing to Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan for justice and facilitating her return home.
