Headmaster in Karachi accused of raping 10-year-old student

Headmaster took victim to a room and raped her, threatening to kill her if she told anyone about incident, says FIR

KARACHI:

A school's headmaster allegedly raped a 10-year-old female student in the Moach Goth area of Karachi.

According to police officials, a case has been registered at Mochko Police Station following a complaint from the victim's father.

The first information report (FIR) filed by the mother states that the headmaster tutors their three daughters. On June 21, the headmaster called, insisting that the daughters visit him to receive Eidi. Despite initial refusal, the mother eventually sent her daughters due to his persistence.

Upon returning home, the victim informed her mother that the headmaster had taken her to another room and raped her. She also revealed that the headmaster threatened to kill her if she told anyone about the incident.

The girl underwent a medical examination, and the police are currently awaiting the results. Following the incident, the victim's parents and local residents protested on Hub River Road, demanding the suspect's arrest. The protest led to significant traffic disruptions in the area.

Last month, the investigation led to the grisly discovery of the bodies of a woman and her two children from a drain in Mauripur.

The police revealed post-mortem examinations that confirmed that the children were subjected to rape by their tormentor who then dumped the bodies in the drain.
