Nowshera: A minor girl was allegedly raped and then brutally murdered in Pakistan's Nowshera city on Monday, triggering massive protest on the social media platforms.
Social media users are demanding justice for the six-year-old girl.
The child had left her home to go outside and play when the incident reportedly occurred.
When she failed to return home, mosques played calls on their loudspeakers on behalf of the girl's parents, reported The Daily Mail.
People found a sack later and called the police.
Police were quoted as saying by The Daily Mail that she had been tortured before her death, struck over the head and other parts of her body with a stone repeatedly.
