Woman gang-raped by MPA’s son, his men

RAHIM YAR KHAN: A ruling party MPA’s son along with his two friends allegedly kidnapped a woman and gang-raped her on Friday night in Zahirpir Town on national highway, some 73-km from here.

A woman of Bhatti Colony on Saturday filed an application with Saddar Khanpur police, alleging that the MPA’s son along with his accomplices entered her house, bundled her into a car, took her to a building located at Kotla Meeran and gang-raped her.

Saddar SHO Muhammad Iqbal called the suspect to the police station and quizzed him. In the meantime, a number of MPA’s supporters gathered outside the police station in an alleged bid to pressurise the police not to register the case.

The MPA said: “We have nothing to do with the incident and the woman has already filed applications against different people.”

DPO Zeeshan Asghar said police called the suspect to the police station for initial investigation and the case would be registered after medical report.
