MANSEHRA: A young girl who remained without name of her father since her birth some eleven years ago has finally got her family identity through the apex court.

`I am thankful toChief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar who took up my case on humanitarian grounds and finally my father accepted me as his daughter, Dura-i-Adal told mediapersons in Oghi on Thursday. Ms Adal, who was jubilant on the Supreme Court`s ruling in her favour, said her father Munawar Zeb had divorced her mother just three months after their marriage.

`I was delivered at home of my paternal grandfather, but my father didn`t accept me as his daughter since then,` she said.

She said that her grandfather Ali Mohammad had moved the apex court where her father ultimately accepted her as his daughter. Correspondent
