The cannibal siblings of Pakistan to be tested for coronavirus

Police sent two convicted cannibal brothers to the tehsil headquarters hospital for coronavirus test in Darya Khan on Thursday. The man-eating siblings, Arif and Farman, were later sent back from the hospital due to the unavailability of testing kits at the facility.

Who are the cannibal siblings? Both brothers were arrested for eating corpses in 2011, punished and then rearrested in 2014 for another act of cannibalism and sentenced to life imprisonment by the Anti-Terrorism Court in Sargodha. Reportedly, in 2011 they dug up the body of a young woman and consumed it. Again in 2014, they were found guilty of exhuming the corpse of a minor boy for the same purpose. The siblings were arrested and tried under terrorism charges as no law exists to criminalise and penalise cannibalism in the country.
