The Parliamentary Leader of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in the Sindh Assembly Khurram Sher Zaman has called for immediate arrest of those involved in the gang rape of a girl belonging to a family displaced by the flood in Sanghar.
He said Sindh flood victims are suffering inhumane treatment. The daughters of the province are not safe under the patronage of the PPP-led Sindh government.
Due to the Sindh government's failure to thoroughly explain the mechanism for reaching victims, numerous fraudsters are relentlessly harassing victims in various ways. The victims are unable to communicate with government officials. The unfortunate incident is evidence of the Sindh government's poor management. The Sindh government should not ignore the Sanghar incident, and strict action should be taken against the culprits.
The girl, a resident of Bismillah colony of Shahdadpur of district Sanghar, issued a video that went viral in which she accused that Ghul Sheer Machi, on the pretext of providing her ration, confined her in an abandoned house, where he and three others gang-raped her.
Sanghar Deputy Commissioner Nisar Ahmed Memon and SSP Dr Farukh Lanjar have ordered police to arrest the accused. The SHO arrested Ghul Sheer Machi and sent the victim of rape to hospital for examination. He added that raids are underway to arrest the other accused.
