Saudi girl, 5, tortured by father
(Riyadh, Saudi Arabia)

A five-year old Saudi girl has died after she was tortured by her father, described as a “prominent” religious scholar who often preaches on numerous satellite television channels.

Lamaa breathed her last in an intensive care unit of a hospital in the Saudi capital Riyadh a few days ago after weeks of suffering from broken arms, skull fracture and head bruises, her mother told Al Arabiya.

“He used all sorts of torture and abuse against Lamaa,” said the girl’s mother, now divorced from her brutal husband.

The name of the father has not been disclosed nor have any details of a most deserved arrest and prosecution.
