She recently moved in with Mahfooz, a bachelor, and his family at Bairua village in Shahbad area.She changed her name to Gulistaan.The ASP said, "The FIR in this case has been registered by us as the boys are minors and their conversion was against the law, so we took cognizance after coming to know about the incident."We have booked Mahfooz, his parents, his brother-in-law who organized the ceremony, the cleric who conducted the conversion ceremony and the barber who performed the circumcision."They have been booked under IPC section 324 (voluntarily causing hurt by dangerous weapons or means) along with provisions of the Prohibition of the Unlawful Conversion of Religion Act, 2020.The provisions of the Act require individuals seeking to convert and religious convertors (who perform the conversion) to submit an advance declaration of the proposed religious conversion to the district magistrate.
