KASUR: A man who was arrested for raping a minor girl, and confessed to have molested four other minors, had been twice booked over rape bids, but was allegedly pardoned by the complainants’ families, who were his relatives.

According to Sara-i-Mughal police, the 45-year-suspect arrested for allegedly raping a minor girl, admitted to have attempted rape of four other minors.

The police said that during investigation, it transpired that the suspect, a resident of Nankana Sahib, used to be a rickshaw driver but later started working at a brick kiln where he would molest minor girls.
