Some neighbours informed me Elishba and her family had been relocated to Lahore for their safety after a series of local threats and demands for them to drop the charges against the culprits of her attack. &nbsp;Eventually I met with Elishba at around 18:00, she is now living with relatives. Elishba&nbsp;was in tears, she has suffered a brutal beating and the loss of her child had obviously scarred her emotionally. &nbsp;She described the vicious attack which involved being hit with metal poles while other men watched and jeered after an altercation with clients. &nbsp;She spoke of the deep embarrassment she felt in being stripped naked so publicly. Elishba showed some of the scars on her legs from her brutal attack, these were not her worst injuries. &nbsp;Sadly she also described how the Muslim men beat her stomach when she told them that she was pregnant, the two assailants told her &nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-family: cambria, serif; color: #0070c0;\">&#8220;Christian children are no better then faeces&#8221;<\/span><span style=\"font-family: cambria, serif;\"> as they murdered the embryo within her. &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: cambria, serif;\"><br \/>\nThe argument began after Elihsba who provides&nbsp;private&nbsp;beautician services &nbsp;asked for the fees for her service from the a woman called Rani and her daughter-in-law, who she had just completed work on. &nbsp;They refused to pay and Rani called her sons to attack Elishba who she said had insulted her. &nbsp;In addition to her child Elishba lost her phone, one weeks wages and gold&nbsp;jewellery which in total amounted to around &pound;400 &#8211; these items were stolen by Rani&#8217;s sons. &nbsp;Other men threw stones at her and laughed as she ran naked from the area. &nbsp;A Christian woman from the local area took her into her home, and gave her some spare clothes. Elishba and I prayed for her lost child, the safety of her family and&nbsp;&nbsp;for justice to prevail. &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: cambria, serif;\"><br \/>\nWhilst I was there my Chairman Wilson Chowdhry called as BBC Asia Network asked if they could speak to Elishba Bibi for a radio feature. &nbsp;She agreed to the interview,&nbsp;as she wanted British people to know that the life of Christians in Pakistan is one fraught with prejudice and violence. Elishba has three other children and has asked for people to pray for them, she fears for the safety of her family after this attack.<\/span><br \/>\n<strong style=\"font-family: cambria, serif;\">Read Elisha Bibi Police First Incident Report <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/0B1uhi1txZxlhOFNtbDNaTmprV0k\/view?usp=sharing\">(click here)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\"><strong style=\"font-family: cambria, serif;\">Two girls gang-raped after kidnap at gunpoint, whilst using forest area as toilet <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.britishpakistanichristians.co.uk\/blog\/tag\/kidnap\/\" style=\"font-family: cambria, serif; font-weight: bold;\">(original story).<\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.britishasianchristians.org\/full-previous-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/pakistan-christians-charity-work-9_New.jpg\" style=\"border: 0px; width: 700px;\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong style=\"line-height: 1.8em; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Shamim Prays with the Sherish and Farzana after their awful ordeal<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: cambria, serif;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.8em;\"><br \/>\nI left Elishba Bibi at 7pm and travelled towards the home of Sherisha and Farzana in Jaranwala, Faisalabad.
