The complainant in a gang-rape case that took place in Mangat Uncha on April 25 recorded her statement under Section 164 of the Criminal Procedure Code before Civil Judge and Area Magistrate Ali Naqi Tipu, detailing the events involving abduction and assault.
Over a month after the incident of gang-rape and forced sexual abuse, police registered a First Information Report (FIR) on June 3.
The incident involved three armed men who allegedly gang-raped a woman in front of her husband at gunpoint, while one of the suspects recorded the assault on video.
The case gained renewed urgency after the explicit footage surfaced on social media.
According to initial reports, the victim were resident of Shahdara Town, Lahore, returning from visiting Nowshehra Virkan when they stopped for a short break. While the victim stepped aside to relieve herself, they were ambushed by seven armed men.
The attackers included Ikram, Laeeq and Khawar, residents of Mangat Uncha, along with four unidentified accomplices.
The victims were taken at gunpoint to a deserted area behind the Government High School in Mangat Uncha, where the woman was reportedly raped by three men.
The perpetrators also stripped both husband and wife, beat them, and forced them to perform explicit acts in front of a camera.
A suspect named Chand was reportedly responsible for filming the entire incident.
An FIR has now been registered against eight suspects, but no arrests have been made so far. Police have reportedly cordoned off the entire village in a bid to apprehend the culprits.
