Case Summary

In Pakistan, a Hindu woman was raped in hospital. The victim, Seema Devi was admitted to the hospital for a kidney transplant operation. She was sexually assaulted by the Muslim doctors who were supposed to perform her surgery after being drugged. The video of the woman narrating the ordeal surfaced. The woman who was earlier admitted to the Indus Hospital in Tando Muhammad Khan City of Sindh province due to kidney disease was transferred to another hospital in Hyderabad. The doctors at the hospital in Sindh allegedly sedated the victim before raping her. She was sent in a very critical condition to another hospital in Hyderabad.

Why it is Hate Crime ?

In this case, there is a strong suspicion that the Hindu woman was targeted by the Muslim doctors because of her religious identity. In Pakistan, minority Hindus are often dehumanised, attacked, murdered and persecuted on a regular basis. Hindu woman and minors are particularly vulnerable in Pakistan where they are often abducted, raped, converted to Islam and then forcefully married off to their Muslim abductors. When Hindus are persecuted in Islamic nations like Pakistan, Bangladesh, there is always a suspicion that religious hostility plays a part. However, in this case, it is also possible that it was a crime of opportunity, and therefore, it is being added to the undecided database.
