Jalalpur Bhattian SHO Sarfraz Anjum said the suspect was arrested after a medical examination of the chicken confirmed the assault. He said the suspect had also confessed to the crime. “He is a 14-year-old boy and did it out of sexual frustration,” the SHO said, adding that reports regarding swabs collected from the hen were still awaited from the laboratory.
