A young Pakistani woman and Verona
resident who was forced by her family into an abortion in
Pakistan returned to Italy on Thursday.
"Farah is finally back in Italy and now she is in a safe
place," Foreign Minister Angelino Alfano said.
"Thanks to the diplomatic work of the Italian embassy in
Islamabad and the cooperation with the Pakistani authorities".
The 19-year-old was allegedly conned into returning to
Pakistan on a false premise and forced into an abortion when she
was there.
She had reportedly conceived the child with a
Pakistani-Italian citizen.
She arrived at Milan's Malpensa airport on a flight from Abu
Dhabi early on Thursday.
