MUZAFFARGARH: A teenage girl was allegedly gang-raped in Muzaffargarh’s Alipur area by a man — who her father owed some money — and his two suspected accomplices on Saturday.

The 17-year-old’s father filed a First Information Report on October 27 said that he was a labourer and was at work when he received a phone call from his wife, telling him their daughter was being taken away by a man he owed Rs4,000 and two others.

“The prime suspect said that if the labourer paid back the loan, he would return his daughter to him,” the FIR read.

Following the threat, the father transferred money to the suspect via mobile phone and was then allowed to talk to his daughter on the phone.

He said that his daughter was crying and told him that “the prime suspect and his accomplices had taken her to a house and all three had sexually assaulted her at gunpoint”.

The father was then able to identify the location of the house and went there with two other men, who he named as witnesses.

“When the suspects saw them coming, they fled,” the FIR further said.

Police have started a search operation to arrest the suspects and a medical report of the girl is awaited.
