Forced conversions un-Islamic: Pakistani Sete panel

ISLAMABAD, June 21: A Pakistani Sete committee on Tuesday declared the conversion of Hindu girls to Islam as un-Islamic and also expressed concern over the practice. “Forced conversion of girls to Islam is against the teachings of Islam and also a violation of law in the country,” Sete Standing Committee on Religious Affairs Chairman Hafiz Hamdullah said.
