| 2016-04-01 |
| [DAWN] City police are hunting a man accused of raping an 18-year-old dancer after inviting her to perform at his residence in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar ...capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (formerly known as the North-West Frontier Province), administrative and economic hub for the Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan. Peshawar is situated near the eastern end of the Khyber Pass, convenient to the Pak-Afghan border. Peshawar has evolved into one of Pakistan's most ethnically and linguistically diverse cities, which means lots of gunfire. . The suspect is believed to be a member of the Afghan parliament. A First Information Report (FIR) was registered at Hayatabad Police Station on the victim's complaint. The victim said in the FIR that she is a dancer by profession and a resident of Peshawar's Tehkal area. She claimed that an Afghan national invited her to dance at an event at his residence. When she reached his house, where a "party-like" function was taking place, the accused forcibly took her to a room and subjected her to rape, said Hayatabad Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Hassan Afzal. Police raided the residence of the accused in Hayatababad area, who had already fled, Afzal said. The police took into custody a driver and a cook from his house. During the raid, police recovered a passport and other documents which revealed that the accused is an Afghan national and a member of the Afghan parliament, said the ASP. However, there is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened... details further reveal that the suspect, namely Haji Sher Ali, was also in possession of a CNIC issued in his name. The police collected evidence from his house to be used in the probe. Results of the medical examination of the victim are awaited, he said. |
