ISLAMABAD: Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Mian Saqib Nisar has taken notice of the gang rape of a 12-year-old girl in Karachi.
The action follows media reports that a girl — a resident of Kandhkot town in Sindh — was working as a maid at a house in Karachi where she was allegedly intoxicated and gang-raped.
The CJ has called a report from the Sindh inspector general of police within a week.
The National Assembly Standing Committee on Human Rights directed the Ministry of Human Rights to get details of the incident and submit a report at the earliest.
Committee chairman Babar Nawaz Khan said such incidents could only be eradicated by ensuring strict action against the accused.

CJ SB good going..but the question is what our police was doing..is there a formal FIR lodged. Why our police only comes in action when asked..are they ever going to be proactive. Or only reactive when duo motto is taken..if that is the case then do we really need the police..
