The case is expected to be heard in the apex court next week.
Karachi: Dua Zehra’s father has challenged the Sindh High Court’s verdict in the case in the Supreme Court.
As per details, the petition holds that the Sindh High Court on June 8, 2022, ordered Dua Zahra to decide according to her choice and the decision was made on the basis of Dua Zahra’s statement and medical test.
“Dua Zehra’s age has been described 17 years in the medical report, while according to the NADRA record and educational certificates her age is 14 years,” father pleaded.
The police has submitted its challan in ‘C’ Class in the trial court. The petitioner has sought immediate hearing of the case.
The case is expected to be heard in the apex court next week.
Earlier, Dua Zehra went missing from her residence in Karachi and an abduction report was registered. Later, the girl was found in Lahore and married Zaheer Ahmed.
The girl in a video message alleged that she left her parents willingly and claimed that her age is 17 years. However, the parents from the outset have been claiming that the girl is nearly 14 and she has been giving statements under pressure.
