RAWALPINDI: Murree is getting more insecure for people. A woman escaped being kidnapped from main Mall Road. Police have registered a case against four unidentified suspects for harassing a woman visitor on Wednesday. The victim told the police that she was staying at a hotel in Murree with her family. She thought of going to Mall Road for shopping, sipping a cup of hot tea in a disposable cup and enjoying the walk, when she saw a car parked outside the building with four suspects inside. As the victim moved forward, two of them got down from the car and one grabbed and placed a hand on her mouth so that she could not scream. However, the victim threw hot tea on the assailant’s face and escaped screaming for help. The suspects fled in their car. Police have registered a case against the suspect and started investigation.
