Pakistan Abducted Christian Girl Escapes and Testifies in Court

9/3/2026  (VOM)

A Christian girl who was assaulted and kidnapped has escaped from her abductors. On March 25, 2026, a 14-year-old Christian Pakistani girl named Abigal and her sister walked to school, unaware it was closed for a holiday. The older sister’s class was having a party, so she stayed. Abigal tried to find a rickshaw to take her home, but as she crossed the street, five men grabbed her and sexually assaulted her. She was then blindfolded, drugged and abused for 10 days. After she managed to escape, she gave a detailed description to police, including the names of her assailants. But authorities tried to force her to return to her abusers, claiming she had married one of the men. She denied it and courageously testified in court, though the outcome has yet to be decided.

Please pray…

• Praise the Lord that Abigal was able to escape her captors and testify against them in court.

• Pray that the court will rule in Avigal’s favor so that she can be safely returned to her family.

• Pray that the Lord will protect Abigal and her family from any evil plans her captors might have.

• Pray that the Lord will heal Abigal physically, emotionally and spiritually of the trauma she has experienced.
