He added, "Today [yesterday], my brother-in-law [the victim's father] went out for Fajr prayers. On his way back home, six people, including Nirab, forced him into a microbus. They then entered the home and picked my niece up. They hit my sister [the victim's mother] on the head and neck when she tried to protect her daughter."
