After a three-day delay, the post-mortem report of the domestic worker who was allegedly tortured to death by the daughter of a PML-N MPA was prepared, according to which 16 different marks of torture were found on the victim's body.

Most of the injury marks were found on the legs and stomach of the victim, reads the the report acquired by DawnNews. It also says that the deep wounds found on "sensitive areas" of the 16-year-old's body could have contributed to his death.

Earlier this week, police officials said that the teenage servant, Akhtar, was tortured by Fauzia, the daughter of a PML-N leader. Akhtar's sister, Atiya, was also reportedly beaten up by the suspect.

On Thursday, Fauzia secured pre-arrest bail from the sessions court while police awaited the post-mortem report.

Police sources had alleged that the medical officer was delaying the autopsy report at the behest of the accused party.
