Turbat kidnapping

Published August 3, 2016

KIDDAPPING of small children in Turbat is on the rise. The common man is helpless about the matter as kidnappers come armed with guns and special cars for taking away small children in Turbat and then selling them out.

It seems there is no law in this country to protect children. More than 10 children are kidnapped every week. The government must come down with a heavy hand on the kidnappers.
