RAWALPINDI(National Times)- A shocking incident has surfaced where a girl was repeatedly raped by various people which resulted in her getting pregnant.
The incident came to light after the victim reached out to the police and revealed the details. Following the registration of the FIR, the hotel manager and his woman accomplice were arrested. According to the FIR, the victim was a resident of Vehari and came to Rawalpindi nine years ago to work as a labourer with her father. She started selling Miswak (chewing stick) to support her father.
She said after her father returned back to his native town, she started staying in a hotel in Pirwadhai. While she was residing there, the hotel manager and a woman locked her in a room and sent an unknown person there who allegedly raped her. She was also threatened when she asked them to allow her to contact her father.
The victim further alleged that at the behest of the hotel manager and his accomplice, various people would come and rape her as a result of which she became pregnant.
She said she gave birth to a daughter in the District Headquarters Hospital in Rawalpindi. After delivering the baby, she reached Pirwadhai where the hotel manager and the woman snatched the child from her and threatened both the mother and child with dire consequences.
Due to fear for her life and the safety of her daughter, she did not take any action and asked the woman, who was the hotel manager’s accomplice, to hand over the baby to her, but she refused. Later the hotel manager also raped her.
During this time, the accused prepared a fake stamp paper which she did not know about. Then seven months ago, she got married to a person who assured her that they would take back the baby girl and raise her.
