Police have registered a case against three men on the charge of sexually assaulting a teenage boy and blackmailing him by recording his video to extort Rs30,000 from him.
According to the report registered to the police on the complaint filed by the victim's father, a resident of Baluani, his 16-year-old son went to a ground last month to play, from where Aleem Khan, Waqar Ali and Ali Mehtab of the same area forcibly took him to a nearby place and sexually assaulted him. The suspects also blackmailed the boy by recording a video of the assault and extorted Rs30,000 from him.
