Teenage girl paraded naked, tortured in DI Khan

Police have arrested seven people in connection with a case of torturing and illegally confining a teenage girl in Garahmat village of Daraban tehsil located in DI Khan.

According to an initial complaint filed by the girl’s family, the suspects had also paraded her naked in the area on October 27. However, the statement was retracted by the family claiming that the girl was taken to suspect Sanaullah’s house, where nine people beat her up, tore her clothes and kept her in illegal confinement.

The girl herself claimed that she got bruises on her arm and knee from all the beating and that the suspects had dragged her inside the house where she was held as a captive.

It has been reported that the girl’s family was pressured to retract the first statement and drop the charges altogether.

It has been learnt that an SHO at the Chaudwan police station has been helping the suspects and delaying justice in the case. The girl’s family also alleged that the SHO filed a concocted case against their family so that they are pressured to hush up the case.

In a statement issued here on Monday, regional police officer Syed Fida Hassan Shah said the police had arrested seven suspects, including brothers Shahjehan, Gulistan and Ramzan, Ikram, Sanaullah and brothers Nasir and Aslam, while the two others, including Sajawal and Saidu, were at large.

He claimed that he was supervising the investigation and had formed special teams for the arrest of the fugitives.
