Express December 21, 2010

KARACHI: Police arrested one suspect in the Clifton gang rape case on Tuesday. The alleged suspect, Laal Chand, was picked up from the Clifton area of Karachi.

Initial reports suggest Laal Chand was one of the guests on the guest list for the party that the two girls were attending.

According to Express 24/7 correspondent Ahmed Jung, a group roaming around in a white Toyota Corolla has been known for such incidents in the past few months.

The girls had registered a First Information Report (FIR) with the police which they later withdrew.

An earlier report in The Express Tribune detailed the incident:
Twenty-something K and her acquaintance S, in her mid-30s, were driving in a blue Suzuki Alto on Khayaban-e-Qasim in DHA when three to four men in a car rammed into them from the back. The small car dived into a ditch, the women were dragged from the car, abducted and K was gang raped while S was beaten. They were then dumped back at the spot. M, one of K’s friends, took them to hospital from where the case was taken up.
