The residents of the area said that a person, impersonated himself a exorcist alias peer Jindwala, came to the village from Kikrarwala Kho Sandhlianwali about five days ago. A woman named Bhagan Bibi, wife of Muhammad Yaseen, took her 16-years-old sick daughter to Pir Jindawala for spiritual remedy.

On 9th May, he told girls' parents that she has died during exorcism because the paranormal powers broke her neck.
The girls' parents brought her dead body back to the village and buried after religious rituals. The villagers asked the parents to report the matter to police but they declared it order of Almighty. The people of the area demanded Sahiwal District Administration and police to take action against the fake 'faith healer' and investigate the matter to unveil the truth.–Staff Reporter
