Her father filed an FIR, claiming that Solangi had abducted and married her forcibly. He also said that her daughter was 15-years-old when she was abducted.
Additional session judge Ghulam Ali Kanasro ruled that Mehak, who took the name Aliza to marry Solangi, was underage. The couple, however, claimed that Mehak embraced Islam.
