Boy promised job but raped for days

PESHAWAR:

Police in the provincial capital are on the lookout for a man who allegedly lured a boy with promises of a job but instead detained him and sexually abused him for days.

The 11-year-old boy told the Chamkani police that he, along with his brother and cousin were standing outside the vegetable market on Ormar road when a man, who identified himself as Zahid, offered him a job.

The boy and his family accepted and the man took him to a brick kiln on his bike.

There, Zahid locked up the boy in a room and raped him.

The man kept raping the boy for four days.

A few days later, two men came and freed the boy from his prison and called his family. Police have registered a case and are investigating the matter.
