Teenage Gang Rape victim commits suicide

RAHIM YAR KHAN: A 14-year-old boy, an alleged gang-rape victim, reportedly committed suicide on Friday in Jetha Bhutta, Khanpur tehsil, 60 kilometers from Rahim Yar Khan, according to local media reports.

The family says the suspects took away the boy on Monday from the village and gang-raped him for two days after giving him liquids spiked with intoxicants, reportedly.

Later, they threw him near his home on Wednesday. When the family found him, the boy was a dead faint.

Victim’s father Malik Iqbal reported the matter to Head Tallaywala check post and sought a case against the suspects. He said police picked just one suspect and despite keeping him in custody for two days, did not register a case.

He said his son, who was already in trauma, could not bear the stress and humiliation from police behavior and jumped before a goods train at the nearby track and died at the scene on Friday.
