The citizens of various districts of Punjab seem to be terrified over the surge in gang rape and molestation of minor girls.
In a survey carried out by this news agency, people hailing from different areas of Punjab expressed their grave concern over the frequent incidents of rape and murder of young girls.
They said they even fear to let their daughters go to neighborhoods or to play outside the homes.
“We have to accompany our young girls to drop them to school, tuition centres and bring them back home,” they added.
The citizens also lashed out at the provincial government and police authorities for poor law and order situation, lack of rule of law which provides the criminals an opportunity to commit crimes and flee.
Abdul Mohiz, a labourer hailing from Lahore, told INP that law was implemented against poor people only but the influential people backed by political parties were provided shelter despite committing heinous crimes.
A shopkeeper Fayyuz-ur-Rehman said that law makers should legislate for strict action against the accused involved in rape. He said when state fails to provide protection and justice, the victims themselves have to respond which results in disturbance in law and order.
The citizens demanded for ban on Indian films which incited youngsters for committing crimes. Exemplary punishments awarded to the accused held in rape and murder cases would definitely bring fruitful results.
It is pertinent to add that more than 10 incidents had been reported across Punjab during the past few days. Some of the accused have been arrested while several others are still at large.
