Kubbra Sait reveals when she was sexually abused by an uncle at the age of 17
Kubbra reveals in her book that the abuse continued for two and a half years by a family friend whom she calls X. She was traumatised.
"When Mumma sighed at the reprieve that cash provided, I sighed too. Just then, a hand slid to the back seat of the car where I was sitting and slid up my dress. X, who was no longer my uncle, smiled as he rubbed my thigh. I was numb in that moment¡ He started frequenting our home, and Mumma would laugh with and cook for him. In front of her, he would kiss my cheek and say, ¡®Oh my Kubrati, you¡¯re my favourite little one¡¯. Although uncomfortable, I kept quiet", she wrote as shared by Times Of India.
Furthermore, Kubbra Sait revealed how and when the first assault happened by X who was married and had a child too.
"He drove down and took me to the hotel. He stroked my face and murmured about how tired I looked. Then, he kissed my lips. I was shocked and confused, but I couldn¡¯t utter a word. This was not supposed to happen, but it was happening. I should have screamed, but I could not. I should have run for help, but I was shell-shocked. The kiss grew. He convinced me it was what I wanted, that it would make me feel better. He kept repeating it until I felt deafened, and then he unbuckled his trousers. I was unsure of what exactly was happening, but I remember thinking, I am losing my virginity. It was a big deal, but it was also my shameful secret. Not the kind you could giggle and tell your girlfriends about."
Kubbra Sait said that she never told anybody, not even her own mother, about this because the man had threatened her with dire consequences. He told her that he would destroy the family, and at that time, she believed him and kept mum.
