Given that this is social media, an Indian social media troll jumped in to use this incident to defend the Modi government’s controversial Citizenship Amendment Bill 2019. He contended that the law will protect minority women like Nimrita. Of course, this law does not apply to Muslim immigrants (which is ironic). It should be mentioned that CAB will only apply to people who migrated to India till 2014.

Background on Nimrita Kumari case

Mehran Abro was taken into police custody shortly after a rape and homicide investigation was launched into the mysterious death of final year BDS student Nimritra Chandani. He and another classmate Ali Shan Memon are being probed in the case.

Even after an autopsy proved that Nimrita Kumari was indeed raped and then murdered, there have been no follow-ups. Authorities even have DNA to pursue a suspect.

Activist Punhal Sario, who held a hunger strike for Nimrita, asked why the culprit is not being pursued despite DNA evidence.

Punhal Sario theorized that the police must be reluctant due to the involvement of a powerful person. This theory has been going around since the beginning in the Nimrita Kumari case.
