#JusticeForMaria – Tragedy strikes yet again as a 4-year-old girl is killed in lower Dir, KPK. Police says they are awaiting post-mortem reports.

Citizens today grieve once again as those in power, in the nation continue to be engaged in power struggles and increasing the economic pressures on the public, while another innocent life meets a horrendous and brutal end. The safety of even innocent children in our country is precarious.
Many still remember the names of victims such as Zainab, Fatima, and countless others. Now, the tragic fate of Maria adds to this list. Regrettably, our collective conscience remains dormant, and these children have yet to receive the justice they deserve. Merely arresting the perpetrators is the bare minimum; there should be an exemplary punishment to deter such criminals from harming children or females again. However, we can only hope and pray that our justice system awakens.
