Islamabad Police crack down on false rape allegations
DIG Ali Wasim has ordered Islamabad police to act against false rape complaints under the Anti-Rape Act, including complainants and witnesses in seven cases, ProPakistani and ARY News report.
ProPakistani and ARY News report that Islamabad DIG Ali Wasim ordered legal action against false rape complaints under the Anti-Rape Act.
Both say he directed action against complainants and witnesses in seven cases under that law.
The conduct they describe is a false complaint, a statement given for money in a suspect’s favour, and misuse of the law for personal gain.
Wasim said justice for real victims, and the rights of women and citizens, remains a priority.
Neither report names the seven cases or says anyone has been arrested.
