A magisterial court handed over five suspects to Hanjarwal police on four days physical remand and sent their two women accomplices into judicial custody in a case against a gang allegedly involved in abducting girls and forcing them into prostitution.
The police produced the suspects in the court and sought their physical remand to minutely investigate the case of abducting girls and forcing them into prostitution.
The statements of the girls rescued on Tuesday in Sahiwal could not be recorded, so the magistrate fixed the next date for the purpose.
The investigation officer (IO) submitted the initial report, stating that the suspect named Kashif was involved in abducting the girls through different tactics and taking them to Sahiwal and other areas.

He said suspect Shehzad was responsible to receive the abducted girls.
The official alleged that Shehzad and his wife were running brothels where they forced the abducted girls to indulge in immoral activities.
Shehzad had one house in Lahore and three in Sahiwal.
The abducted girls were trained in dance and sent to perform in parties also, the report added.
The IO alleged that the wife of another suspect, Asif, was also running a beauty parlour and a brothel.
An FIR on similar charges had been registered in Sahiwal against Shehzad.
