A local court has sentenced the accused, Shahbaz alias Shabi, to a total of 50 years in prison in a case involving the rape, abduction, and threats against a 15-year-old girl.
According to reports, additional District and Sessions Judge (East) Naseer Noor Khan delivered the verdict, imposing a fine of Rs 1.65 million on the convict.
According to the prosecution, in June 2021, the victim had stepped out to buy items when Shahbaz approached her, claiming her father was being attacked and urging her to come with him.
En route, the accused allegedly drugged the girl, rendering her unconscious. Shahbaz, along with two accomplices, took her to an undisclosed location where they rapped her.
The prosecution further stated that the accused threatened the girl’s father, demanding that he send his daughter to them or face the release of incriminating videos.
The girl’s father lodged a complaint at the Brigade police station, Karachi. The prosecution successfully proved the charges against Shahbaz, leading to the court’s decision.
