In Afghan refugee camp No. 16 in the city of Haripur, a horrific incident occurred in which five men allegedly raped a 21-year-old woman, police said on Saturday. A First Information Report (FIR) has been registered, and police have launched an investigation. According to the FIR, the victim was on her way to Camp No. 16 for work when five men forcibly dragged her into nearby fields and raped her for two hours. The FIR further stated that the perpetrators also snatched Rs3,000 in cash and a gold nose pin from the victim. She identified the suspects as Bacha, Nadi, Rozi Khan, Javed, and Naseer. The complaint added that when she tried to resist, the men physically assaulted her, leaving her injured. The Khalabat police have booked all five suspects under Section 375A of the Pakistan Penal Code, which states: “When rape is committed by two or more persons in furtherance of the common intention of all, each of such persons shall be punished with death or imprisonment for life.” The incident has sparked outrage among local residents, while the victim’s family has demanded exemplary punishment for the culprits.
