The Pakistan police have arrested a suspect connected with the killing of an 18-year-old Hindu girl, who was shot dead on Monday in Sindh province.

The assailant and two of his accomplices broke into the Hindu girl's house and opened fire on her after she refused to marry him, the Dawn newspaper reported citing the police.

The girl identified as Pooja Kumari was shot in Rohi, Sukkur after she put up resistance to the attackers.

This is not a stand-alone incident in Pakistan. Human rights activists say that hundreds of Christian and Hindu girls are forced to convert to Islam every year.
