The Hafizabad police claim to have arrested five suspects in the gang rape of a woman.
Dawn reports that the police arrested the suspects during raids carried out in the district and a few other cities and shifted them to the Sukheke police station for interrogation.
Police claimed that most arrests came in the light of information obtained from the one robber who was caught by the police soon after the rape with the help of geofencing.
Dawn’s sources reveal that the police also picked up some relatives of the main suspect in order to exert pressure on them to surrender themselves to the police.
A woman was allegedly gang-raped in front of her husband and three-year-old daughter in Hafizabad while they were going back to their home city, Chiniot, on a motorbike.
One of the three robbers was arrested shortly after the incident and police teams were assigned the task to trace and arrest the rest of the robbers.
