Punjab police rescued a woman from Hafizabad who had been held captive in a small room for almost ten years by her brothers over an inheritance dispute.

According to reports, her neighbours, who couldn’t sleep because of her heart-wrenching screams, gave the details of her location to the police who rescued her.

The police revealed that Naila Bibi’s brother gave her food only once a week and did not clean her room. When she was rescued, her bed was covered with her own excrement.
