DERA GHAZI KHAN:


A widow who went to a landlord to get zakat was abducted by his munshi and raped for two months in Dera Ghazi Khan.



According to police officials Mana Hamdani resident Nasim Bibi approached a local village landlord for zakat three months ago and was abducted from his house along with her four children. Nasim Bibi finally managed to flee her captor Kot Chattha landlord Aslam Gurmani and his munshi Aurangzeb’s clutches last week and approached the police to file a case.

“They took me away at gunpoint and kept me in a locked room with my children. Every night they raped me,” she told police officials. “We have registered a case and are investigating the whereabouts of the accused. So far we cannot locate Aslam Gurmani but I have my men looking for him,” said DG Khan Civil Lines Station House Officer (SHO) Saqlain Tahir.

Nasim Bibi said that she had been tortured for two months and her children had been beaten. She has appealed to the chief minister and Supreme Court chief justice to take action on her behalf.
