A 12-year-old girl reported missing last week in capital Male has been found two months pregnant.
The girl was found severely dehydrated and taken to Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital (IGMH). Her family, however, took her home in spite of IGMH staff requests that she stay at the medical facility, reports Haveeru.
No information has been released regarding the girl’s disappearance or her pregnancy.
The case is expected to fall under the remit of the Health Ministry’s Gender Department.

I am sure this is Sheikh Imrans concubine.
He has been ranting and fueling men to stick to the goat herder's life. If 9years is ok for rape, then 12y is more than old enough for those who gathered on 23rd December!
I call upon our parliament to make a law that will allow health care professionals to admit and treat cases like this, children under 16 years old who are unable to defend themselves or make decisions upon themselves, these kids needs to be protected from their care givers/parents as well...She should have been admitted and properly treated even against her parents wishes because in this clearly they are doing harm and she deserves better,while the police and the courts sort out the rest.Who knows whether shes dead or alive right now? Shame on her parents.
this is just lazy reporting. go out there and find out more. do your job.
