“The men said that my son had disgraced them and this was their revenge,” says victim. PHOTO: FILE
She said that they had also abducted her five-year old granddaughter.
The woman, a resident of Mubarakpur, told media that her son had married the girl, a resident of Dera Izat, a month ago. This infuriated the girl’s family members Abdul Aziz, Sajid, Tariq and Majid who then abducted her granddaughter, the woman said.
A complaint was filed at the Cantonment police station.
The woman said that she went to her daughter-in-law’s house along with several policemen to recover her granddaughter, but could not find her. Instead, she said, three men took her to a room and raped her even though the police were there.
“The men said that my son had disgraced them and this was their revenge,” she said.
She said that police had registered a rape case against the three men, but had not ordered a medical report yet.
Cantonment SHO Irfan Akbar said that police had registered an FIR against the criminals and was investigating the matter.
He said that the woman’s claim that the police were present at the scene of the crime was false.

@KDP:
"At least Indians do not rape relatives or incest"
First, So you are proud that Indians rape often but not relatives.
Second, Yes you are right they dont rape, just simply marry their sisters (not incest at all, isnt it?). Just for reference research a bit about great Hindu emperor "RAJA DAHIR"

"It has been there for a long time in Pakistan, just now it started showing up on the papers……"
Please start making some sense. I know most people in South Asia loves to make claims without any proofs.
@WebEditor
It should be Sons-in-law
Yes! this is Neya Punjab under same old honest leadership,elected fifth time by great obedient brainless,emotionless public of Punjab.
@ABKhan: At least Indians do not rape relatives or incest
Well, Punjab did vote for the same party that has had control over Punjab from 1985-1999. then from 2008-Present. They have never fixed the police system. People still manage to commit such crimes because they know they can get away with it. And weak punishments that get handed down after far too many years.
Well done Pakistan Police, you have surpassed yourself...
Sex, violence and sensationalism: Essential ingredients for successful journalism.
@ABKhan:
It has been there for a long time in Pakistan, just now it started showing up on the papers......
It can be inferred that the culprits were residents of "Dera Izat"
Oh, the irony !
Its really shameful act. Pakistan will become India if the rape cases continue
shame shame and shame
