She also requested Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan, Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) and Chief of Army Staff (COAS) to take action against the accused and guarantee provision of justice.
Daily Times reached out to Police Investigation Officer Rana Umer Hayat, who said that no arrests were made yet because they were still waiting for the DNA test report, which will be prepared within the next few days.
He added that the case looks ‘ingenuine’ and ‘engineered’ since the woman was reluctant to give DNA samples for testing earlier. “We now await the DNA report, after which we will decide our next move,” Hayat said.
