A heartbreaking piece of news has surfaced after people collectively began talking about the same on Twitter. A young child named Madiha – reportedly between the ages of 7 years to 10 years, based on the varying tweets, was reportedly found raped and murdered in Saro Khel village, Hangu District, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

It’s awful that incidents like these keep repeating, and people who took to social media began identifying these patterns as well.
