Girl raped in mosque
By Our Staff Reporter
LAHORE: A 10-year-old girl was allegedly raped by unidentified youth in a Gawalmandi area mosque on Monday.
Police said the victim (I), daughter of Tariq Mehmood of Railway Road, went to a shop near her house to buy grocery when a bearded man lured her to the first floor of Kalmay Wali Mosque, where prayer-leader Ghulam Rasool resided.
The accused subjected the girl to sexual assault and escaped leaving her injured.
The girl somehow managed to reach home where she fell unconscious. She was taken to the Mayo Hospital by her family.
On being informed of the incident, SSP (operations) Chaudhry Shafiq Ahmed and other police officers rushed to the hospital.
The SSP told Dawn that the prayer leader and prayer caller Ejaz (24) of Azad Kashmir had been taken into custody for interrogation.
The girl, who was stable, told police that she could recognise the culprit.

“The girl, who was stable, told police that she could recognise the culprit.”
It will not matter that she can recognise the culprit, since there aren’t 4 male witness to the rape it did not happen, but because she accussed some one she will be put on trial for adultery. Pakistan’s prisons are full of women convicted of adultery for being raped.

One would think there would be a lot of outrage over something like this to the point that ordinary citizens would apply a little sharia to the culprit. But nope, mind numbing Koranism must take its course-in this case, blaming the victim is more important than administering justice.
