Doctor Rimsha from Polyclinic has been appointed by the Court to examine her age on her appearance. She said that the girl seems of 16. It is to remind that she is not specialized in this field, when Shamim Masih, human rights activist asked doctor about her specialization she was confused and said, I am a student of specialization. Her legal lawyer, “Tahir Naveed Chaudary” has filed the petition to release her on the bases of her age factor and on her mental disability (Down's syndrome).
