LAHORE: The board of doctors at Children Hospital Lahore have sent the medical reports of rape and torture survivor, six-year-old Kainat Batool, to United States and London as the minor’s condition has not improved.

Children Hospital Dean Masood Sadiq told Geo News they have sent Kainat’s medical reports to different countries in order to get an opinion on her treatment and also know if there is a need to send the minor abroad. 

The dean added they would definitely send Kainat abroad for further treatment if there is a need to do so.

The hospital administration said the six-year-old was also undergoing physiotherapy after surgery so that her condition improves.

According to Kainat’s father, she was abducted from outside her house on November 11, 2017, a day after which she was found nearly dead.

The incident left the six-year-old physically and mentally handicapped.

Mohammad Imran, the person accused of raping and murdering seven-year-old Zainab in the same district — Kasur — is also reported to be involved in Kainat’s and other similar cases.

Kainat’s father says he was not familiar with the accused, but knows that he lived at a distance of approximately 500 metres from their house.

The survivor’s father — who says he cannot bare to see the state his daughter is in — said the accused should not be merely hanged to death, but must be given an exemplary punishment.
