She further alleged that <strong>Abdul Ghaffar Mirani<\/strong> and <strong>Kashmira Mirani<\/strong> had also threatened them, despite having no involvement in the marriage or the legal proceedings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She maintained that she had left her family home voluntarily and had not been abducted or forced into marriage. According to her, she freely chose to marry Sikandar Ali Mirani through the court and has since been living in fear because of the alleged threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking to reporters, Juveria said she had exercised her legal right to marry by choice but now feared for her safety due to the opposition from her family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sikandar Ali Mirani said the couple had chosen to marry because they loved each other and had followed the legal process. He alleged that Juveria&#8217;s father and brother were unhappy with the marriage and that threats from several individuals had created concerns that an untoward incident could occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through the media, the couple appealed to the <strong>Chief Justice of Pakistan<\/strong>, the <strong>Chief Minister of Sindh<\/strong>, the <strong>Inspector General of Police (IGP) Sindh<\/strong>, the <strong>Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Sukkur<\/strong>, and the <strong>Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Sukkur<\/strong> to provide them with immediate legal protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They also requested that their statement be placed on official record so that, if any harm comes to them in the future, those responsible can be held legally accountable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The couple said they face serious risks to their lives and urged the relevant authorities to take immediate notice of the matter and ensure their safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The allegations contained in this report are those made by the couple during their press conference.
