KARACHI: Police have yet to arrest a suspect allegedly involved in raping a girl in PECHS society of Karachi a month back as PTI Karachi chief Khurram Sher Zaman blamed the police for refusing to acknowledge the incident, ARY NEWS reported.

Khurram Sher Zaman said that the sexual assault incident occurred at the back of the Insaf House in PECHS society and a courier service’s representative also tried to nab the suspect.

“A CCTV footage also showed the suspect fleeing away,” he said adding that the suspect was visible in the footage, however, the police are still denying the entire episode.

He lamented that despite the statement of an eye-witness, the police’s neglect was unfortunate and raises questions regarding the role played by authorities in such matters.

“It is unfortunate that rape incidents have been reported unabated in the city,” the PTI Karachi chief said.
