FAISALABAD:
A woman was allegedly raped by five people in Khurarianwala on Monday.
Anwar Ali, the woman’s uncle, said his niece was cooking lunch for her husband at their home in Chak 77-RB when her former fiancé Muhammad Sohail and his four unidentified accomplices broke into the house.
They told her to divorce husband.
“When she refused, Sohail and his accomplices raped her,” he said.
He said the woman’s one-year-old daughter was also present at the house.
He said when his niece resisted, they beat her. He said they later fled
Ali said his niece had been engaged to Sohail but the engagement was broken off after it was discovered that he was a drug user.
He said she was later married to Muhammad Ahmad, a resident of Chak 77-RB.
Ali said Sohail had tried to harass her several times after their engagement broke off.
“He used to make threatening phone calls and send her angry text messages,” he said. He said his niece had changed her phone number after she got married and had been happily living with her family.
The Khurarianwala SHO told The Express Tribune that a case had been registered against the suspect and a team had been formed to investigate the matter. He said the woman had been advised to submit a medico-legal report.
