| 2017-10-11 |
| [DAWN] KASUR: Ganda Singhwala police on Monday started the paperwork but haven't done much else against three men for allegedly raping a boy in Hussain Khanwala village. The village had attracted worldwide attention in 2015 when hundreds of young boys were alleged to have been sexually abused. According to police, three suspects, under the influence, kidnapped a 14-year-old boy of the same village and allegedly abused him sexually on Sunday night. The suspects disappeared, while the boy was shifted to DHQ hospital. Police started the paperwork but haven't done much else under sections 377 and 367-A of the PPC. According to Station House Officer Muhammad Waheed Arif, police were conducting raids to arrest the suspects. They were also waiting for a medical report of the boy to ascertain whether it was rape or an attempt. One of the suspects was among those alleged to have been abused in 2015, and had withdrawn his case later. Earlier this year, 10 minors, including three girls, had been killed after rape in Kasur and its adjoining villages with no arrests so far. |
