A pregnant woman in Lahore’s Raiwind area has alleged that police and two of her cousins assaulted her during a dispute involving a vehicle, resulting in the loss of her pregnancy, according to media reports.
The woman, identified as Irum, said her husband had a dispute with her cousins Ali Hassan and Imran Yousaf over a vehicle transaction.
She alleged that the two men arrived at her home in Muslim Nagar, Raiwind, accompanied by police.
Irum claimed that she was assaulted by her cousins and the police during the incident and subsequently lost the baby.
She also alleged that police refused to register her complaint regarding the incident.
According to Irum, police instead took her husband into custody following the confrontation.
She did not provide further details about the circumstances in which he was taken away.
An ultrasound report has confirmed that Irum suffered a miscarriage, according to the report cited in the case.
The woman has appealed to Punjab Chief Minister (CM) Maryam Nawaz and Punjab’s Inspector General (IG) of Police for action and justice, alleging that she and her husband have not received due protection or assistance after the incident.
The dispute reportedly stemmed from a disagreement between Aram’s husband and her cousins over the exchange of a vehicle.
Police have not yet issued a statement on the allegations, while no response from Ali Hassan and Imran Yousaf was included in the available account.
Further details about any police action, including whether a formal case has been registered, were not provided in the available information.
