SWABI:

An FIR has been registered against Nasib Jan, in-charge of the Khanda police post in Swabi, on charges of allegedly abducting two sisters, unlawfully confining them, making indecent videos of them, issuing threats and blackmailing them.

The case was registered at Zaida police station on the complaint of widow Fatima Aweis, according to Station House Officer Raz Muhammad Khan.

In her statement, Fatima Aweis said she and her sister Amina left their village of Kotha for Islamabad on 11 June because of domestic problems. When the two sisters reached Khanda, police officer Nasib Jan, a resident of Mohmand Agency and currently posted at Jagnath in Swabi, allegedly forced them into his vehicle and took them to Shah Mansoor. There, he is accused of holding them in a five-marla bungalow for nearly a month.

The FIR further alleges that the officer made indecent videos of both sisters, threatened them and blackmailed them. The sisters were later shifted to Islamabad.

On 2 October, Fatima Aweis managed to escape, reached home and informed her family of the entire ordeal. Her sister Amina, however, remains in the custody of the accused officer.

SHO Raz Muhammad Khan said efforts are under way to arrest the nominated police official and recover Amina.
