In a similar, rather more horrific incident, the police in April 2018 arrested a madrassa teacher for sexually abusing at least 10 young girls in Korangi area of Karachi.
According to ARY News correspondent, the man named Alam Ghouri sexually abused at least 10 girls aged between five and 14 and filmed the act on his cellphone camera.
Alam was arrested after an area resident lodged a First Information Report (FIR) with police claiming that four years ago, Alam Ghouri not only raped his daughter but filmed the act.
The complainant claimed that her daughter was 14 when the incident occurred and now the accused is blackmailing him with the video.
