Hateful. The trafficking of women has become a major international issue. It's happening everywhere but it's worse in underdeveloped and developing countries like Pakistan, where the poverty and desperation can be easily exploited .

I think it is Divine Garden as their are nearly 30 to 40 houses being rented by these characters. They can be seen with Pakistani girls walking to and fro from Metro Stores. They are regularly visited by Pakistani males.

The guilty should face full force of the law but some may be genuine cases. As the harsh reality is men outnumber women by 70 million in China and India.

Are families of the bride's-to-be blind, they are equal partners in this scam. Selling their girls for cash albeit under the cover of marriage.

Poverty is the mother of all evils. Help IK in making Pakistan a welfare state. Pay taxes so that the government can afford helping individuals financially so that they do not have to go that far. Please please pay tax.

Nowhere it is written that all Chinese or as a matter of fact Westerners are angels. There are good and bad in every society, so learn from the good and punish the bad.
Everyone behaves whether locals or foreigners in a land that is ruled by law and the law enforcement agencies do their job i.e. protect law and order instead of rich and powerful plus where criminals are punished whereas criminals rule in the land where the law is missing and/or no one is punished.

@Zak, 10 Chinese do not represent 1.3 billion. In a sea of good there are always a few rotters. Unfortunately in some countries in the region in a sea of bad, there are no good ones, that is the real tragedy.

Pakistan should have kept its society closed to outside world like the Iranians have protected it and engage on THEIR own terms, carefully devised.
The Iranians are SHARING within their society, Technical Knowledge and Education to DEVELOP themselves.
As a result, they need NO ONE ELSE.

Check all previous marriages involving Chinese Nationals and confirm the well being of girls married. Strict laws should be implemented for the coming and moving of Chinese Nationals as such elements are bringing bad name to Pak China friendship.
