Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Sunday ordered a probe into reports of abduction, forced conversion and underage marriages of two teenage Hindu girls in Sindh province and to take immediate steps for their recovery, said information minister Fawad Chaudhry. The two girls, Raveena (13) and Reena (15), were allegedly kidnapped by a group of "influential" men from their home on the eve of Holi.

Soon after the kidnapping, a video went viral in which a cleric was purportedly shown solemnising the Nikah (marriage) of the two girls, triggering a nationwide outrage. In a separate video, the minor girls can be seen saying that they accepted Islam of their own free will. In a Twitter post on Sunday, Chaudhry said that the prime minister has asked the Sindh chief minister to look into reports that the girls have been taken to Rahim Yar Khan in Punjab.
