Child abuse grows to worrying figuresAt the turn of this year, the suspected murderer of an eight-year-old girl in Nowshera confessed to his crime before an anti-terrorism court. Don’t the men who abuse innocent children, including boys, have any shame? Chairman of Council of Islamic Ideology commented that ‘no doubt including sexual education in curriculum will be a positive step while considering the gravity of the situation’. The schools, with many of them crossing the fine line and breeding terrorists in the name of jihadists, have since long, remained the hub of child abuse. Zainab’s murderer is an example, where he being a product of madrassah education, had admitted to being abused in his childhood.
