10th class girl gang-raped by police officer, his friend
SARGODHA: A police officer along with his friend gang-raped a student of 10th class who was trying to get her father released from custody of Kot Momin police.
The suspects left the girl in front of her aunt’s house when her condition became critical and fled.
As per the first information report (FIR) lodged by the victim with Kot Momin Police, her father was arrested by the Kot Momin Police Station in a fake case of hashish. A man who claimed to be a friend of an assistant sub-inspector (ASI) posted at the police station called her to clarify the position of her father, saying that he would be released if she could prove his innocence.
She further said she was going to the police station when the ASI and his friend kidnapped her in a car and forcibly took her to a house in Nizamabad. She alleged that both the suspects gang-raped her at gunpoint and when her condition worsened, they dumped her in front of her paternal aunt’s house at 2am.
She was pursuing case of her father who was in custody
As per the police report, both the suspects nominated in the FIR had been arrested by Kot Momin police.
The victim girl alleged that police were harassing her and her family and also threatening her father to force her to withdraw the rape case or he would be implicated in other fake cases too. She appealed to the chief minister for justice and security.
District Police Officer Dr Asad Ijaz Malhi constituted an investigation team, headed by SP Investigation and ASP, to look into the matter.
