NAROWAL: Police have registered a case against a man for allegedly raping a mentally challenged minor girl who was later hospitalised in a critical condition.
In his complaint to Narowal Sadar police, Maqsood Ahmed, a labourer of Kotli village, said his 13-year-old niece ‘M’ who suffered from some mental issue, was playing in the street when ‘S’, an employee of a locally influential landlord, lured her to a cattle pen and raped her.

He said the injured girl, whose father worked in Faisalabad, was shifted to the district headquarters hospital by the locals.
Acting on the complaint, the police registered an FIR against the suspect and started conducting raids for his arrest.
