Rizwana was a maid in Islamabad and her employer Somia Asim was the wife of a civil judge.

The tragic incident became talk of the town and everyone demanded immediate arrest of Somia who was later booked on the growing public demand.

“My message is not for the parents who are forced to send their children outside for work. No parent would want their children to be working at a school going age,” Mahira said.

The incidents like Rizwana are very common in those houses who are very educated and powerful, she said.

“Why? Maybe because they know they will get bail easily, there’s no accountability for them,” she said.

The celebrity also appealed to the lawmakers to play their role against the child labour.

Earlier, Pakistan’s acclaimed actor Sajal Aly had also raised her voice against the child and domestic labour.
