“I recognized two people pulling away my daughter Shabana.My daughter was
screaming in pain asking the men to leave her alone.My mind was seething with
fear and fury. I could do nothing to help my daughter from being assaulted
sexually and tortured to death.My daughter was like a flower, still to see life.Why
did they have to do this to her? What kind of men are these? The monsters tore
my beloved daughter to pieces.”
Medina Mustafa Ismail Sheikh, then in Kalol refugee camp, Panchmahals District, Gujarat
