Pakistan's parliament has passed a new bill against child abuse, two years after the murder of a seven-year-old sparked deadly riots and public debate.

The Zainab Alert, Response and Recovery Bill is named after Zainab Ansari, whose raped body was found in 2018.

The legislation provides for a dedicated agency to respond more quickly when children go missing.

Zainab's murder was one of a string of such attacks in Kasur city, and sparked outrage and protests in the country.
